Please unblock package asymptote
Hopefully this should be an easy one. Asymptote's reference card, had a
license that did not specifically allow modifications
(http://bugs.debian.org/684417). I contacted upstream, he changed the license,
and so I've updated the package with the latest version of the reference card
from upstream (which is the same as the current version, a typo fix, bumping
the version number and year, and actually printing the license on the card).
