======
Historical Note on PDFlib Lite

PDFlib Lite was an open-source subset of PDFlib 7 which reached its end of life in 2011 (!). PDFlib Lite could be used for free in non-commercial projects, or if the source code of the product using PDFlib Lite was also made available for free.

PDFlib GmbH no longer offers open-source versions of PDFlib. PDFlib Lite is no longer supported and neither source code nor precompiled binaries are available for download.
======

This port (and maybe his dependency print/pecl-pdflib) can be deprecated and removed from the ports tree.

Many ports depend on it, currently I've uploaded the tarball on FreeBSD internal master sites.
