Comment (by jmroot):
You can't only use a single mirror since not every mirror may have a given
file. Only use archive_sites.conf if you want to add a new mirror that
isn't in the official list.
What you probably want to do is prioritise certain mirrors, which can be
done by setting preferred_hosts in macports.conf. For example:
{{{
preferred_hosts *.cn.*.macports.org
}}}
