>Description:
        The checksum in the distinfo file for chat/riece does not match
        the distfile at the master site, or the copy at ftp.netbsd.org

>How-To-Repeat:
        mv .../distfiles/riece-5.0.0.tar.gz /somewhere/safe
        cd ..../pkgsrc/chat/riece
        make checksum

>Fix:
        Verify that the changes are safe (intended by source site)
        (probably by comparing the one the distinfo file intended to
        use, and the one that actually exists - obviously only someone
        with the previous distfile can do that), create a DIST_SUBDIR
        for this, move the distfile fetch to there, and update the distinfo.
        (Perhaps revbump - depending upon what the change to the distfile
        actually is, and whether there's any realistic chance anyone could
        have built the package with the old distfile).   In the Makefile
        probably indicate that the DIST_SUBDIR should be removed with the
        next update.
