xz failed to build on macOS 10.13 17A365

[shapez0r]

As a dependency of cmake, it fails to get the port for darwin 17 and stops:

Reason - ​http://tukaani.org/xz/ takes us to sourceforge and you need javascript to get files from there: We're sorry -- the Sourceforge site is currently in Disaster Recovery mode, and currently requires the use of javascript to function. Please check back later.

Please use WikiFormatting in the future. Also remember to set the port field and add maintainers (port info --maintainers xz) to CC.

I cannot reproduce the problem on my system, fetch and checksum is successful. As this is likely a (temporary) problem at sf.net, there is not much we can do about it.

Please use port distfiles xz to get a list of mirrors for a manual download of the tarball. Place it into /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/xz/ which is also shown in the output of said command.

How is it that you're trying to use xz 5.2.2 on High Sierra? High Sierra was just released days ago, yet we updated the xz port to 5.2.3 in December. Please sudo port selfupdate to get the latest portfile definitions.

Closing, because we cannot fix SourceForge server issues.
