OVERVIEW OF ISSUE:
I am unable to download "linux-f10-flashplugin-10.0r42" to install it via
the command line is ports.
I am able to download it via:
http://cvsweb.freebsd.org/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin10/linux-f10-flashplugin10.tar.gz?tarball=1
The version online does not match the security signature in the ports tree.
I also try to download it from macromedia, but says "size mismatch: expected
405308, actual 4050435".
Bottom line, I cannot install this port.

STEPS TAKEN on Feb 13, 2010:
portsnap fetch
portsnap update
cd /usr/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin10
make install

THE ERRORS:
\\ When trying to download from Macromedia \\
...size mismatch: expected 405308, actual 4050435...

\\ From
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/flashplugin/10.0r42/ \\
...File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)

Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this port manually into
/usr/ports/distfiles/flashplugin/10.0r42 and try again.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin10

MORE STEPS TAKEN:
I try to go to the dir via my web browser
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/flashplugin/10.0r42/ and
it does not exist. f
tp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/flashplugin/<ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/flashplugin/10.0r42/>
does
exist but there is nothing inside of it.
I go to: *
http://cvsweb.freebsd.org/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin10/linux-f10-flashplugin10.tar.gz?tarball=1
* and I can download the tar.gz from there but it gives the same errors.


RESOLUTION:
I do not know of any. I am stuck.

Please help.
