The fear that "there might be something nonfree in there"... well, that's true for our entire system. We also have a similar issue with security vulnerabilities... there are almost certainly security vulnerabilities in the sum total of our packages. Which packages though? And what are they? We don't know the answer to either of those. Our response is to take action if and when problems are found. That's the same approach we should take here. - Chris
