Non-free? According to the DFSG, are not they free? I cannot see any point of the DFSG that such a program, distributed both in source and compiled form, with a free license, compilable only with non-free tools, would infringe.
I thought they were only failing one policy condition to be in the free area, but not the DFSG. As the policy section 2.2.2 says: > Every package in contrib must comply with the DFSG. So if such a non-recompilable, free-licensed binary fails the DFSG, it should not even go to contrib, but to non-free! -- Tanguy Ortolo
