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.

Chris
