parentUpdate to version 3.0.12. (diff)
Update portsnap to version 0.9. This brings the following changes:
* SHA-256 has replaced SHA-1 as a hash function used for verifying integrity of the ports tree. * The RSA signature verification is now performed using OpenSSL rather than "borrowing" code from FreeBSD Update. * In addition to distributing the ports tree, portsnap now also produces up-to-date INDEX, INDEX-4, and INDEX-5 files. * When fetching a series of patches, portsnap now prints a simple progress indicator. PR: ports/79044 Submitted by: maintainer

+
+ As a result of shifting from SHA-1 to SHA-256, the structure of
+ portsnap's configuration file and compressed snapshot have both
+ changed. After upgrading to portsnap 0.9, you will have to
+ update your configuration file ($PREFIX/etc/portsnap.conf) and
+ delete your existing portsnap compressed snapshot:
+
+ # cd /usr/local/etc && cp portsnap.conf.sample portsnap.conf
+ # rm -r /usr/local/portsnap/*
+
+ In addition, be aware that the next runs of "portsnap fetch" and
+ "portsnap update" will take far longer than usual, since they
+ will need to download and extract a complete copy of the ports
+ tree.
