Joomla15 out of date, broken dependency: PDFLib-Lite-7.0.2 no longer available

[Andrew Gullans]

I'm a total BSD noob, so bear with me.  I'm trying to "make install clean"
joomla15 on a friend's server (his college project; he's my "client").
Anyways, the problem is that Joomla 1.5.7 is in the ports tree, but it
depends on PDFLib-Lite-7.0.2, which is no longer available.  Instead,
PDFLib-Lite-7.0.3 is available, but it is not in the ports tree.  Joomla
1.5.8 depends on PDFLib-Lite-7.0.3, but it is not in the ports tree,
either.  So, right there, I can't install Joomla on this server.  I would
like to do it manually, but I don't know how (and can't seem to figure it
out, either).  So, I'm going to go back to playing Fallout 1 instead and
hope you respond sometime soon.  It sure would be nice to see this
particular interdependant part of the ports tree fixed this week!
Thanks....  (log follows):
