Subject: [PATCH] gnu: abiword: Switch to the site mirror.
Date: Sat, 15 Jun 2024 21:54:16 +0300

* gnu/packages/abiword.scm (abiword): Switch to the site mirror as the original
  site is down since around August 2023 (see
  <https://web.archive.org/web/20230801000000*/https://www.abisource.com/>).
  [source]: Use a site mirror.
  [home-page]: Likewise.
  [arguments]: Use gexps.
