It was dropped and replaced with pine-tracker.  This source was still
available, and when a new pine tracker package was available, it reminded
you to build yourself a new package with the following commands:

"apt-get --only-source build-dep pine"
"apt-get --only-source -b source pine"

Since it's license won't let you distribute binaries, the source code was
made available, but you had to compile it yourself.  It was a minor pain,
but it helped give me some insight to the packaging system.

HTH,

Brooks
