--- Comment #5 from Nathan Robertson <nathan at robertsonfamily.id.au> ---
I can not find anywhere a tarball that matches the SHA sum in the ports for
this. I have gone looking through Debian and Fedora, and have found that the
current Fedora (31) matches the tarball they distributed in Fedora 12 (ie. very
ancient). Incidentally, Debian's tarball matches that SHA sum as well. But I
can't find one that matches the one in FreeBSD.

I've attached a patch showing the differences between the really ancient Fedora
one and the one on the dirvish.org website now. It's just a bunch of places in
the source code and documentation which were saying version 1.2, and should
have been 1.2.1. Somebody has fixed that, re-released and not announced the
change.

There used to be a distfiles directory on ftp.freebsd.org. I don't know whether
something like that still exists, but if it does, it'd be nice to get access to
the tarball that matches the SHA sum this port uses.

Otherwise, given the attached patch looks very safe, and the fact the source
code being used by Fedora hasn't changed in so many years (and current Debian,
for that matter), I'd say it'd be safe just to update the SHA sum to what's on
the website, and re-enable the port.
