>Description:
	The source files and patches for the gnuls package, based on gnu
	fileutils-3.12 are no longer available from the primary sites
	because they are so out of date.  The latest version of the main
	source on prep.ai.mit.edu is 3.16.

>How-To-Repeat:
	cd /usr/pkgsrc/misc/gnuls
	make

	(Watch the fetch target search sites in vain for the source and
	patch files before finally settling on ftp.netbsd.org.)

>Fix:
	None supplied.
