Did you read wiki:FAQ#checksums and try to determine which situation applies?

Can you provide any information to help us diagnose this problem? If there is a server out there delivering the wrong file to you, we need to know what that server is. Or, if it was a problem on your end, we need to know that so that we can close the ticket.

Hi, I am having the same problem. I did a clean and re-install, but that did not fix it. All other ports are updating fine, so i don't think this is an issue on my machine per se. The port is being downloaded from: ​http://jog.id.packages.macports.org

My installs usually come from internode or aarnet or nue.de. In this particular case it came from nue.de. There is no problem at my end. Everything works fine except help2man. Thanks for your trouble, it is appreciated. JLH

No, it is not. MacPorts tried to download a precompiled package from three servers including that one, but didn't find it, so it then proceeded to try to build from source. It had already downloaded the source from a previous attempt, but the file it downloaded was not the correct one. We don't know where the incorrect file came from because your log doesn't show it, but I'm going to assume this is a duplicate of the aarnet server misconfiguration being tracked in #49416.
