truecrypt not found (but the tarball is there)

Hi,
I'm trying to install Truecrypt, so I followed the instructions of the ports makefile, manually downloaded the tarball, plaed into distfiles and restart the build. However I'm getting the following error:

Code: 
=> TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
=> Attempting to fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this
=> port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/ and try again.
*** Error code 1

Anyway the tarball is in there:

Code: 
# ls -l /usr/ports/distfiles/./TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1950519 Oct 17 11:55 /usr/ports/distfiles/./TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz

Am I missing something?

The dot isn't part of the directory, it was part of the sentence.
 
It does not matter the presence of the dot or not, since a '.' in a path simply means "don't move from here". Anyway:

Code: 
# ls -l /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1950519 Oct 17 11:55 /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz

So the file is there....
 
Uhm..I was in doubt it was a version problem, however I updated the ports tree and downloaded the new truecrypt version, but again:

Code: 
===>  Found saved configuration for truecrypt-7.1
=> TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
=> Attempting to fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this
=> port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/ and try again.

and of course the file is there:

Code: 
# ls -l /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz 
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1062612 Oct 17 17:16 /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz

Any idea?
 
Does the output of [cmd=]sha256 /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz[/cmd] match the line in distinfo? The size seems way off anyway.

Code: 
SHA256 (TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz) = 94815d6c72f36fb194fc53d2527088f3bf7060797530f7eafd63d1b9596fd9f4
SIZE (TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz) = [B]1950519[/B]

Code: 
# ls -l /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_[B]7.1[/B]_Source.tar.gz 
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  [B]1062612[/B] Oct 17 17:16 /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz

Interestingly, that size does correspond with the earlier version you posted:

Code: 
# ls -l /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_[B]7.0a[/B]_Source.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  [B]1950519[/B] Oct 17 11:55 /usr/ports/distfiles/TrueCrypt_7.0a_Source.tar.gz

So either your files are wrong, or the distinfo file wasn't properly updated.
 
I did a full ports update using portsnap, I also deleted the ports tree and get it again. However the problem remains, but I was able to install Truecrypt 7 using the 7.1 ports, since the distinfo had the wrong size and sha256 signature. Is this a ports error or was just something wrong with my tree?
 
It's a contrived process, but I can confirm that it should work.

I downloaded the TrueCrypt\ 7.1\ Source.tar.gz file (backslashes added to make clear that there are spaces in the original file name), renamed it to TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz, put it in /usr/ports/distfiles and then ran make in /usr/ports/security/truecrypt. This threw up a config page for a GUI, and after that the other files in TrueCrypt's distinfo (wxWidgets-2.8.12.tar.gz, pkcs11.h, pkcs11f.h, pkcs11t.h) were retrieved, and the build continued.

It's a very untidy process, but it should work.
 
Well, the process was the same you described for me too. However the distinfo was reporting 7.0 data. Again, I deleted the whole tree and get a new one with
Code: 
portsnap fetch extract

Now I'm not a port master, but this should give me a clean updated port tree...
Any other test I can do to understand what is wrong? By the way, it is fine for me to have also the 7.0 version...
 
If your ports tree is really 'actual', you should have this:

Code: 
$ cat /usr/ports/security/truecrypt/distinfo                                                                             
SHA256 (TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz) = 94815d6c72f36fb194fc53d2527088f3bf7060797530f7eafd63d1b9596fd9f4
SIZE (TrueCrypt_7.1_Source.tar.gz) = 1950519
SHA256 (wxWidgets-2.8.12.tar.gz) = 197c94f7d46269a7fc261a3c8c943f03a9807acf65381944489a538fd8b5dd21
SIZE (wxWidgets-2.8.12.tar.gz) = 18924737
SHA256 (pkcs11.h) = 1563d877b6f8868b8eb8687358162bfb7f868104ed694beb35ae1c5cf1a58b9b
SIZE (pkcs11.h) = 9578
SHA256 (pkcs11f.h) = 5ae6a4f32ca737e02def3bf314c9842fb89be82bf00b6f4022a97d8d565522b8
SIZE (pkcs11f.h) = 29258
SHA256 (pkcs11t.h) = 8ce68616304684f92a7e267bcc8f486441e92a5cbdfcfd97e69ac9a0b436fb7b
SIZE (pkcs11t.h) = 70934

The port's Makefile should have this:

Code: 
PORTNAME=       truecrypt
PORTVERSION=    7.1

Given that there is only one approved location to download the file, you should not even be able to get a version other than 7.1, because that is what that site offers as the only option.
 
By the way, do you know about a good alternative to truecrypt that works fine on FreeBSD and windows too?
 
I don't use truecrypt, was just trying to assist with troubleshooting this issue.
