     @4yrs2l8 The first link says "available for", not "shipped with". It doesn't surprise me if #OpenBSD "recommends" non-free sw like #Debian.

     @4yrs2l8 To clarify, I meant "suggests" (not "recommends"), which is the wording used in http://ur1.ca/9sljc . #OpenBSD #Debian

     @ossguy What's interesting is that #Debian policy says a package can't recommend something outside of main: http://ur1.ca/9slwn

     @ossguy But taking it out of the Recommends: field and turning it into a message that's shown on screen seems acceptable to them.
