Unstable's current a2ps is (a) broken wrt paper sizes, (b) is currently
without libpaper support.  You need to downgrade to the non-CVS-in-the-name
version, that being:

rei $ dpkg -l | grep a2ps
hi  a2ps           4.13b-20.2     GNU a2ps - 'Anything to PostScript' converte

Well, not -20.2, as I built that locally to avoid #202673.  The prior
version is actually -20.1...

It's all in the BTS.
