"vrms" package provide nice `vrms` command (and cron job) that print
all non-free packages installed.
If non-free package drop one line "reason file" named as a package
itself to "/usr/share/vrms/reasons/" then `vrms` will also print
contents of such file as explanation of what makes the package
non-free. IMHO the following fragment of `vrms` output show some good
examples of how this feature can be used in non-free packages:
tar-doc documentation for the tar package
Reason: GFDL with invariant cover texts
bsdgames-nonfree rogue, the classic dungeon exploration
game
Reason: No commercial use
cuneiform-common multi-language OCR system (common)
Reason: No source code for linguistic data.
I hope this could be useful.
All the best,
Dmitry Smirnov
