Details

Description:
ABS build of extra/nedit fails due to sources for nedit 5.6 not being available on sourceforge mirror. Nedit 5.6a is the only version of nedit available.

Additional info:
This patch updates the distfile info and associated checksum. This patch also switches to openmotif, as that's what I require to build nedit on my system. Please note, LessTif developers have declared their project obsolete/deprecated (http://lesstif.sourceforge.net/) and recommend using the LGPL'd openmotif source.
* Patch for PKGBUILD
