=> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this

Can someone explain this:
Code:
/usr/ports/print/cups-pk-helper # make install clean
=> cups-pk-helper-0.0.4.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
=> Attempting to fetch from http://www.freedesktop.org/software/cups-pk-helper/.
fetch: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/cups-pk-helper/cups-pk-helper-0.0.4.tar.bz2: Not Found
=> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/.
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/cups-pk-helper-0.0.4.tar.bz2: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
=> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this
=> port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/ and try again.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/print/cups-pk-helper.

How to resolve this? Have no idea.
 
Try again in a few minutes. Or download the file by hand and place it in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
 
Same occurs when fetching virtualbox. This problem persist since yesterday, so not a matter of some minutes.
 
Hmm.. File doesn't seem to be available on the freebsd site:

You could try and contact the port's maintainer:
Code:
root@molly:~#cd /usr/ports/print/cups-pk-helper/
root@molly:/usr/ports/print/cups-pk-helper#make maintainer
ahze@FreeBSD.org
root@molly:/usr/ports/print/cups-pk-helper#
 
Unfortunatelly kmail disappeared after update to kde 4.4.3. So I have no usable email. :(
Can you give me a hint how to get it back without recompiling the whole kde4 bunch?
