Comment (by barracuda156):
Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign]:
> Yeah, BW appears to have neglected this software. Its web page still
lists that now-nonexistent repository as the place to get the source. The
last release was in 2010. The blog was last updated in 2010. The main web
page doesn't mention this software or the blog and was last updated in
2016 which is when, according to his Twitter, he started working at Apple.
That probably keeps him pretty busy.

on it.
I see. So in these cases Macports does not keep backups of sources? An
extra reason to avoid fetching whenever possible.
