From fe1022c36723ed96bda12f29e2d77d8c28727fbb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaun Amott Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2006 00:22:10 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] - Fix fetch (and unbreak) port by using the submitter's distfile mirror. - The author no longer wishes to maintain the port, and has recommended that it be scheduled for termination. It deserves plenty of time since it is now fetchable and seems useful. PR: ports/104503 Submitted by: Frank J.
