I don't know how you got that in your distinfo, but mine says:

MD5 (mindterm-ssh.html) = 9c7330315b018d58476b16c1cb30eb02
SIZE (mindterm-ssh.html) = 1085
MD5 (mindtermbin-v121.zip) = 7e9da7322fcae183e6821b26b5acc61b
SIZE (mindtermbin-v121.zip) = 230263

However, as noted, the files that the port currently download do not
match these checksums, for unknown reasons.  It may be that the author
just recreated the same file with different contents, or something
more sinister might be going on.
