Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
The program dvips takes a DVI file [.dvi] produced by TeX (or by some other processor such as GFtoDVI) and converts it to PostScript, normally sending the result directly to the laserprinter. Fonts used may either be resident in the printer or defined as bitmaps in PK files, or a `virtual' combination of both. Dvips will automatically invoke METAFONT to generate fonts that don't already exist.

print/dvips: Reset maintainer and deprecate interactive port

Unstaged ports are being reset today.  I'll grab this one from the batch
in order to set the expiration date to match the other unmaintained
interactive ports.  The port should be converted to a regular port as
well as providing stage support in order to undeprecate it.  The listed
maintainer has been non-responsive for almost two weeks as well.
