with, not a precompiled package archive.

> First, MacPorts tries to download a precompiled archive. None are
available for any port for macOS 15 on arm64 because I haven't set up that
build machine yet. So next MacPorts downloads the source and tries to
build that.

> For both archives and distfiles, MacPorts tries servers in order of what
we think will be fastest for you, based on ping time. You can override
that choice by filling in the `preferred_hosts` entry in macports.conf.
You can also specify servers that you don't want MacPorts to contact at
all by filling in `host_blacklist`.

> However, if you are doing that because of a server MacPorts tried that
didn't work properly, we would prefer that you report the problem to us so
that we can fix it for everyone.

> It can take a couple hours for changes to sync from the GitHub
repository out to the mirror servers, so wait a couple hours and then run
`sudo port sync` to receive the fix, then try installing gpsd again.
Thanks so much! This makes sense. I wondered why it was building locally,
but didn't dig into it. Thanks again for the quick fix and the
information.
