True, the original page doesn't longer exist. I am notifying the  
maintainer of mapmaker, Daniel Macks.

Try this workaround, Durrell:

cd /sw/src
sudo curl -O 
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/master.us.finkmirrors.net/distfiles/mapmaker.html

It'll download mapmaker.html and save it under the directory where  
Fink downloads source files.


Cheers,
