Reassigning to package maintainer. What licenses are associated with the sxrom-j.zip and gxrom-r.zip distfiles?
According to hpcalc.org [1]: "HP graciously began allowing this (the ROM file) to be downloaded in mid-2000." Another link on this [2]. I haven't found any official notification from HP about this fact, though. Version 0.6.4 is stable for all arches and no ROMs are shipped with it, so I suggest to wipe out version 0.4.3-r1 and the ROM files at g.o/distfiles to get around this. Regards.

=app-emulation/x48-0.4.3-r1 removed from the tree. No references to HP48 ROMS in the ebuilds now.
