Description Mark Linimon 2004-02-09 08:20:17 UTC
	The various print/pips* ports have failed to fetch from anywhere
	except the FreeBSD FTP site since September 2002.  Perhaps
	it is time to consider deleting them, unless the maintainer
	objects, or has a newer mastersite?

Fix: All the ports are sub-ports of print/pips800.  The following
	proposed patch would mark it as deprecated:
How-To-Repeat: 	make fetch

From-To: open->closed

Ports have been marked as deprecated.  A possible replacement for the 
mastersite could be http://www.epkowa.co.jp/english/linux_e/dl_ink.html, 
but the exact same files are not there. 

Maintainer timeout: >4 months.
