Works for me:

[ram@cizin ~]$ sudo port checksum pkgconfig

I was using "port clean --all" rather than "port clean --dist".

When I did the latter and ran "sudo port checksum pkgconfig" all was good.

My apologies - I'm new to the ports system, still RTFM'ing.

Defect can be closed.

odd port clean --all should also remove the distfile...

For future reference, there is a FAQ about checksum mismatches.

You needed to run the clean --all with root privileges.
