     Type:  update           |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal           |  Milestone:
Component:  ports            |    Version:  2.3.4
 Keywords:                   |       Port:
-----------------------------+--------------------------------
 As the new maintainer of xfig and transfig, please note that the upstream
 locations of
 the xfig and fig2dev, formerly transfig, software packages are now
   https://sourceforge.net/projects/mcj/files/xfig-3.2.6.tar.xz
 and
   https://sourceforge.net/projects/mcj/files/fig2dev-3.2.6.tar.xz
 respectively.

 The transfig-package has been renamed to fig2dev, because this is really
 what it is. In fact, the transfig-program itself is considered obsolete,
 therefore it has to be specifically built with the configure-switch
 --enable-transfig.

 Build and installation can now be done with
   ./configure --disable-dependency-tracking   for fig2dev
 and
   ./configure --disable-dependency-tracking --with-
 appdefaultdir=/opt/X11/share/X11/app-defaults
   for xfig.
 Then, do   make -j; make install-strip
 Optionally, make check and make installcheck are both supported.

 Please, report success on building or any difficulties you might
 encounter.

 Yours,

 Thomas Loimer
