In developer reference at 4.6.1 Sections ... Packages in the contrib section have to comply with the DFSG, but may fail other requirements. For instance, they may depend on non-free packages. ... You can notice *may fail* ... According to my english any dependency or other thing from non-free is not an obligation. It is "may" not "must".
