>Description:

	Greetings!

	All SuSE distributions prior release 8.0 has been marked
	as obsolete and unsupported, and was moved to new location
	on SuSE FTP site. New directory is

	/pub/suse/discontinued/${MACHINE_ARCH}/${SUSE_VERSION}/suse

	Unfortunately, the SuSE FTP maintainers left that "discontinued"
	directory empty for saving disk space on FTP mirrors. This
	means that sites which contains 7.3 distribuiton used by
	pkgsrc is an ftp.suse.com only.

	Thus, ${MASTER_SITE_SUSE} list declared at mk/bsd.pkg.mk
	file becomes incorrect.

>How-To-Repeat:

	cd ${PKGSRC}/emulators/suse_base && make fetch

>Fix:

	The mentioned ${MASTER_SITE_SUSE} must be adjusted to new
	locations and/or ${SUSE_VERSION} should be bumped up to 8.0.

	--
	TIA, Mishka.
