I'm working on a new Portfile for the `extractpdfmark' tool.  Within
the file I have

  github.setup        trueroad extractpdfmark 1.0.2 v
  github.tarball_from releases

After `port sync' I tried `port -v install' and I got

  --->  Attempting to fetch extractpdfmark-1.0.2.tar.gz from
          http://nue.de.distfiles.macports.org/extractpdfmark
  [...]
  --->  Attempting to fetch extractpdfmark-1.0.2.tar.gz from
          https://github.com/trueroad/extractpdfmark/releases/download/v1.0.2
  [...]
  Error: Failed to fetch extractpdfmark: The requested URL returned error: 404

Saying `curl --version' returns

  curl 7.61.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin11.4.2)
    libcurl/7.61.1 OpenSSL/1.0.2p zlib/1.2.11 libidn2/2.0.5
    libpsl/0.20.2 (+libidn2/2.0.5)
  Release-Date: 2018-09-05
  Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps pop3
    pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp 
  Features: AsynchDNS IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP
    UnixSockets HTTPS-proxy PSL 

which looks OK to me.

Doing some manual tests with `curl' I tried

  curl -o x https://github.com/trueroad/extractpdfmark/releases/download/v1.0.2/extractpdfmark-1.0.2.tar.gz

which returned a `you are redirected' HTML document (attached).
However, adding the `-L' flag to curl (to follow redirections) makes
the program successfully download the tarball.

How shall I proceed?  It seems to me that I've hit a bug in
macports...

PS: Looking into the log file I see

      :notice:fetch --->  Attempting to fetch extractpdfmark-1.0.2.tar.gz
        from https://github.com/trueroad/extractpdfmark/releases/download/v1.0.2
      :debug:fetch Fetching distfile failed: error:1407742E:SSL
        routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version

    Maybe this is related also.
