Stupid upstream FTP server...

I've put the source file to our distfiles-local mirror. Please wait a couple of hours until it has been spread over the other mirrors.

It is a more serious issue than stupid FTP server:

Upstream maintainer Vic Abell has retired
which he announced for lsof-4.90 but he did one last update 4.91
read it on the changelog at entry 4.90 here: 
/usr/share/doc/lsof-4.91/00DIST.bz2

And this lsof homepage does not exist any more:
(ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/)

He suggests the site of upstream support now only may be:
lsof-l-subscribe@lists.purdue.edu

Is there a tool that can replace this?

Either way, the original issue has been resolved. Thanks, Lars!
