Google Code as an upstream is gone

Hello,

Google Code has been deprecated[1] since March 2015, and read-only since
August 2015, giving time to software developers to move their
development some place else. All the distribution files that still use
solely googlecode.com as their source have been marked BROKEN today in
r422140[2], as they are not fetchable.

Most software have moved to some other place (mostly on github), all you
have to do is figure out where and update your ports accordingly.
