Upon going that page, the user gets a message that Corel is no longer distributing Wordperfect 8 for Linux, and provides a link to their other Linux products. My ports tree was updated via cvsup approx 13:00PST on 08/29/2001. >How-To-Repeat: cvsup your ports tree cd /usr/ports/editors/wordperfect make fetch Then go to the web page as instructed. GUILG00.GZ is not obtainable >Fix: I'm not sure what Corel's position on WP8 for Linux is. If they are willing, then it can get a distribution site (or several) created. If not, then ?? >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
