>Description:
	The checksum recorded in the distinfo file does not match
	the distinfo file itself (not from the master site, not the copy
	at netbsd.org, nor any other I could locate).

	This is kind of weird, as the mod date of the file at the
	master site is 27 Aug 2002 (> 3 years ago), so this one does
	not really look like the usual idiot maintainer who plays about
	with distfile contents (though it isn't impossible).

>How-To-Repeat:
	mv ..../distfiles/nProbe-source-1.3.1.tgz ..../distfiles/KEEP-nProbe-source-1.3.1.tgz
	cd .../pkgsrc/net/nprobe
	make checksum

>Fix:
	Someone who is able should find out what happened, and how we
	ended up with a checksum that doesn't seem to match reality.

	then if all is OK, update the distinfo file...
