Hi!

The misc/edict (and some other related packages) author
changed the distribution method. Instead of providing a
new file every 6-12 months, he now regenerates the distfile.

Can anyone think of a sane method to handle this in pkgsrc?

Currently I'm considering updating the package about 1/month
and just mirroring the resp. distfiles on ftp.netbsd.org.
