Yes, both Depends and Builds-Depends on non-free bist are fine. The contrib package can also be under a free license, but as long as it is not useful without some non-free bits, it has to go into contrib. (e.g. game-engine-free/contrib + game-artwork/non-free, until someone produces game-artwork-free/main). B-D: non-free just means no autobuilding. > I don't have any ppc64el machine :( and a porterbox won't work, either, since we cannot install non-free B-D there. Andreas
