main.log attached, but I cannot see anything meaningful in there with
respect to this problem.
I have just updated many other ports in binary-only mode without any problems.
Any ideas?
The mpich-default port clears the archive_sites which will prevent the lookup of
binary archives for download. That is why no download attempt is in the provided
log excerpt. The buildbots are not aware of this and will publish these archives
after building, but they will never be found.
