Please remember to use WikiFormatting.

Did you read the MisbehavingServers page to which the error message directed you? What server was it trying to reach? What is in the HTML file that was downloaded?

[Liontooth (David Liontooth)]

​http://merd.net/pixel retrieves a page offering to sell you the domain name; it should clearly be removed from the portfile.

The error is not caused and cannot be corrected as suggested by the MisbehavingServers page.

The home page of the project has changed and is now:

 homepage        http://rigaux.org/hexedit.html
 master_sites    http://rigaux.org

-- though when I ran install with the modified portfile, I got

Replying to lionteeth@…:

Yes it is, it's exactly the situation described in the fourth bullet point. If the server correctly returned a 404 response, there would be no problem.
