--- Comment #1 from Andy Mender <andymenderunix at gmail.com> ---
I checked the doc URLs and there are also links to documents for an earlier
version of numpy (1.16.0):
https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.16.0/numpy-ref-1.16.0.pdf
https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.16.1/numpy-user-1.16.1.pdf

And docs without the point version from numpy.org (currently, at 1.16.6, which
is more recent than what scipy.org seems to offer!):
https://numpy.org/doc/1.16/numpy-ref.pdf
https://numpy.org/doc/1.16/numpy-user.pdf

I don't think hard-coding the version is a good idea, especially that
PORTVERSION makes it more convenient when updating the port. If the missing
DISTFILES are an issue, one can modify MASTER_SITES in the following way:
MASTER_SITES=   CHEESESHOP \
                https://docs.scipy.org/doc/${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION:R}.1/:doc

Or switch to the numpy.org docs. This properly downloads the documentation.
