Ah ha, that was it, I was using maintainer:scott at hostwizard.com, I  
will look for a bug and if there is not one, file a report.

Cool, thanks.

So, lets take "p5-astro-satpass"
I am the maintainer.  It just needs a version bump.
I notice there is no livecheck command in the p5's, is this normal, I  
take it livecheck is built into the p5 checking somehow?

I no longer hold a local port repo for p5-astro-satpass, since I  
submitted it, I removed my local working version, to make sure I am  
using the same stuff everyone else uses.

This port will need a version bump, and a checksum bump, as will most  
of the ports I maintain.

Is there a way to do this without setting up a local portfile repo?  I  
did a `port edit p5-astro-satpass` then did a save as to the desktop.   
I bumped the version, and run:
`sudo port install ~/Desktop/p5-astro-satpass` which does not work.

Looking for a way to get the new checksums, and do a quick test  
install without the hassle of setting up the entire port locally.

Any suggestions?
