Lately read a lot of discussion about broken pkgsrc and new digest (for checksums). I tried to install audio/vorbis and digest wouldn't build. Later I commented out rmd160.h check in the makefile, so it used the rmd160 code instead of using a rmd160 library that didn't exist on my system. (digest checked for the header which I did have.) (30/Mar/2001 -- I think I mistakenly installed the -current includes with rmd160.h on Jan. 8 -- even though I never wrote about it this journal.)

But then pkgsrc said my pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install was out of date. So I did a "make install" in the directory; it downloaded it but then nothing happened. No messages. So I did a "make" and it said it was missing a checksum. So I did "make NO_CHECKSUM=yes" and then "make install". And it worked.
