Comment (by barracuda156):

 Replying to [ticket:72232 szhorvat]:
 > `R-magrittr` fails to build on my Sequoia arm64 system. This package has
 a very large number of reverse dependencies. If it does not function, it
 cripples the R package system in MacPorts.

 A lot of ports were broken by recent changes (I believe, by Josh) to
 github tarballs handling; nobody bothered to fix port extract for R (or
 Fortran) ports, so likely everything that did not have explicit
 `github.tarball_from` won’t extract correctly now. Don’t ask me why that
 was done at all or why it was done without caring to fix resulting
 breakages.

 Good news is that ports as such are fine. Likely the problem can be fixed
 by adding `github.tarball_from tarball` (no comments here) or running
 `port clean --all`, adding `github.tarball_from archive` and then fixing
 checksums.

 FYI, the maintained repo for R ports is here: https://github.com/macos-
 powerpc/R-ports (it is not specific to powerpc and can be used on any
 macOS).
 If you use R ports, you may want to have it set as an overlay.
