….gz has disappeared This is a fix for the current package source file http://www.greenwoodsoftware.com/less/less-483.tar.gz not being available anymore. We bump the less version back to 481, and adjust the source package hash accordingly. This is a (slight) downgrade from 483 as opposed to an upgrade since a) 481 is the current Recommended version by http://www.greenwoodsoftware.com/less/download.html b) Upstream is unreliable about keeping experimental versions around. (cherry picked from commit 0f9f74f)

We bump the less version back to 481, and adjust the source package hash
accordingly. This is a (slight) downgrade from 483 as opposed to an
upgrade since
a) 481 is the current Recommended version by http://www.greenwoodsoftware.com/less/download.html
b) Upstream is unreliable about keeping experimental versions around.
