I think the policy is to not include packages without stable sources.

That said, their copyright page says:

Weiterverbreitung, auch in Auszügen, für pädagogische, wissenschaftliche oder private Zwecke ist unter Angabe der Quelle gestattet (sofern nicht anders an der entsprechenden Stelle ausdrücklich angegeben).

I think this means that we can mirror the package ourselves, and mark it as licenses.unfreeRedistributable instead.

@yegortimoshenko thank you. Unfortunately the LICENSE file included with the tarball clearly prohibits redistribution. I will ask them to provide stable download links. Closing this until they do.
