Until fontforge port is updated, anyone encountering this can run sudo port clean --all fontforge then see ​the fetch failures bit to grab stuff from the MacPorts mirror.

That doesn't help because cidmaps.tgz is pulled from http://fontforge.sourceforge.net, not from the mirror. See log:

sudo port clean --all fontforge

That's annoying; I guess the only choice then is to download it manually from the mirror at ​cidmaps.tgz and manually put it into /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/fontforge/. Then just do a sudo port clean --work fontforge and a build should be okay from there.

[ionel@…]

That last suggestion worked for me. Thanks.

[royassaly@…]

Thanks. That worked for me as well.

yes, this solution worked me, too.
