   |  lintpkgsrc -m might be a better idea for this.
 
 Quite possibly - I've been using the script I use now (modulo the
 odd update) since well before lintpkgsrc existed I think (certainly
 before I knew about it) - that is, since way back in the previous
 millenium ...
 
 I suspect though that it would only do half what my script does, in
 that my script's real (original) purpose is to make sure that I have
 all of the distfiles, "make checksum" does "make fetch" when the
 distfile is not present - so when for some reason my twice daily
 "fetch all the new distfiles" scripts have failed to fetch a distfile
 the weekly script makes another attempt to fetch it (and every week
 thereafter until either the fetch succeeds, or the distfile is no
 longer required).    That aspect of the script wasn't relevant to the
 PR, so I didn't mention it.
