We got the answer that it has been replaced by pst-pdf. The script
ps4pdf now refers to pst-pdf:

hille@sid:~ $ ps4pdf --help
/usr/bin/ps4pdf [-v|-q|--crop|--version|--Xps2pdf OPT] FILE
Process LaTeX document FILE using the pst-pdf package,
including running latex, dvips, and ps2pdf as necessary.
--Xps2pdf OPT passes OPT to ps2pdf.
 (-dAutoRotatePages=/None is always passed.)
--crop runs pdfcrop on ps2pdf output.
--lualatex using the luatex engine for .dvi and .pdf
--xelatex using the xetex engine for .xdv and .pdf

Is this sufficient for you? Is is OK to close that bug?
