        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.
