System: NetBSD klei.intern.polderland.nl 1.4.2 NetBSD 1.4.2 (KIELDRECHT) #11: Wed Jul 19 14:00:31 CEST 2000 root@kieldrecht:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/KIELDRECHT i386


>Description:
	After downloading a distfile, it is claimed that the checksum
	is incorrect. The next download site is tried (if any, and if
	settings allow) but eventually the download fails. Repeating
	the make command now likes the downloaded file anyway.

	Example fragment from updating Lyx, where the xforms distfile
	is fetched:

===> Returning to build of lyx-1.1.6
===> Required installed package ispell-3.1.20: ispell-3.1.20 found
===> Required installed package teTeX>=1.0.6: teTeX-1.0.7 found
===> Required package xforms>=0.88nb1: NOT found
===> Verifying reinstall for ../../x11/xforms  
===> Validating dependencies for xforms-0.88nb1
=> bxform-088.tgz doesn't seem to exist on this system.

...  etc.

Second try, note the "Checksum OK":

azenomei.4:/vol1/rhialto/cvs/pkgsrc/print/lyx$ make
===> Validating dependencies for lyx-1.1.6
=> Checksum OK for lyx-1.1.6.tar.gz.

...

	and there I get the same problem again with libtool-ml-20010219.tar.gz...

>How-To-Repeat:
	cd pkgsrc/print/lyx && make
>Fix:
	workaround: re-run the make command after the file was downloaded.
