 Sorry. It looks like it has been updated a few times since I worked on
 this package. It is not available anymore except for newer version. If you
 have time, you may want to look at the URL and try a new version (by
 editing the Makefile). But discussion on that is more than this PR. You
 may want to use tech-pkg to discuss on how to update packages and porting
 software to OpenBSD.
