A number of optional packages should be optional and YES they should
conflict. An example would be gs and gs-aladdin. One of those is
non-free, does that mean it should be extra because it conflicts with the
free version? Or should the free version be extra because the non-free
version is better?
Both are optional. Users decide whether which one they want.
