I would be very interested to know when the distribution file on the FreeBSD 
"distfiles"
archive was exchanged, and and why?
I did a quick search on one of our older poudriere installations and *bingo*.
In the distfile cache I found this file:

$ ll PDFlib-Lite-7.0.5p3.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 pmh  staff  8179201  4 Mär 11:38 PDFlib-Lite-7.0.5p3.tar.gz
$ shasum PDFlib-Lite-7.0.5p3.tar.gz
42e0605ae21f4b6d25fa2d20e78fed6df36fbaa9  PDFlib-Lite-7.0.5p3.tar.gz

Which contains the old license I am referring to.

Anyone want a copy of that archive?

That's the actual archive that's been in the port since 2012 :)

It seems to me that dist-mirror and pkg-mirror in ports/Mk/bsd.licenses.mk could be met by this, but not auto-accept.  It'd mean that we had non-free/restricted software being distributed in FTP.

There are two ways around this if you want joomla3 packaged:

- Negotiate with PDFlib GmbH (you might be better at German than me...) to allow for commercial use of pdflib (unlikely)

- Stop joomla3 depending on PDFlib by default.

Does it work without PDFlib?  If so, I suggest the latter, and that's easy to do.
