pstotext 1.8g fetch failure

[dpkatz@…]

I tried to install pstotext today, and found that it was not avialable anywhere:

$ sudo port search pstotext 
pstotext                       textproc/pstotext 1.8g         Extract ASCII text from a PostScript or PDF file

$ sudo port install pstotext latex2html latex2man html2text

I can understand that the source at compaq might not be available, but shouldn't there be copies in the macports svn repository? Or is there a bug in the attempted repository list? Or am I just being stupid?

Thanks!

What about using ​pstotext-1.9?

Good idea! Updated to 1.9 in r32309.
