The package includes the following disclaimer in jpeg2ps.txt: "This software is free. You are granted the right to use and copy it. This software may not be sold or bundled with any commercial package without express written permission of the author. The author accepts no responsibility for damages resulting from the use of this software and makes no warranty, either express or implied, including but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. This software is provided as is, and you assume all risks when using it." This doesn't grant the right to redistribute the package, so I wonder if we need mirror restriction. As an additional complication, the original upstream distfile is gone, and the Manifest checksum of the file at archive.org no longer matches.
I have updated the distfile to .zip and added a mirror restriction for now. The restriction can be dropped if we decide that the package ca be redistributed.
Probably not worth the trouble because there is a free replacement. Masking for removal.
