Description Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2017-05-20 16:10:03 UTC
could not find anything about the package on the website provided in HOMEPAGE.
Even not with web.archive
Comment 1 A Blamey 2017-05-20 17:48:31 UTC
libfpx now appears to be maintained by ImageMagick.
According to [1] the extent of their support is 'to accept patches from contributors and build a new point release'.
Tarballs are available at https://www.imagemagick.org/download/delegates/ .

Judging from archive.org, the old I3A organization appears to have been absorbed into IEEE around 2012-2013 and it's website long since lost to SEO link-spammers.

From the README file in the tarball:

> This package is currently maintained by the ImageMagick Studio,
> http:://www.imagemagick.org/. It is available from
> ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick/delegates/ as well as via
> the 'fpx' module from ImageMagick CVS. All change history, starting
> with the original distribution is available in ImageMagick CVS.
