Description
The host of the source code for this software, Riverbank (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/), provides only the latest version for download. As a result, installation of the port will break every time it is updated, since the older version can't be fetched. The port file version is 4.4.2, while the official version is at 4.4.5; so this port will currently not install.
Would it be possible to add the source tarball for this port to our own mirror so this doesn't happen? If not, what other solutions would you suggest?

Some mirrors (gentoo) were found for this port. See bug 10487.

I think the developer should be contacted and asked if he will provide an /archive or /old directory. I think this really should be fixed upstream. It creates other problems (though it solves some too) to create our own mirror tarballs.
