Sure. But that is manual work on the user side, which is unnecessary if you use a distribution listed on https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html (whose maintainers search and fix the subtle freedom issues): despite the configuration I mentioned, 'emerge' will let you install Firefox

Ok, thanks for your advice Magic Banana. Although, it looks like a lot of the non-free packages on that list could be avoided, e.g. by using Icecat instead of Firefox and LibreOffice instead of OpenOffice.
