That is quite a vague question, do you have more specific details? Sounds like a package that has source that is built using something non-free, which would put it in contrib? I would personally hope packages in main are built from source, we often don't fully do that though (for e.g. autotools generated build systems). -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
