okay, I have briefly checked contrib and non-free and they contain stuff
which is on our blacklist (due to license problems, patent problems and 
copyright issues).

So, sorry, I don't see a way here. And I don't want to spend too much time
on checking each single package.

If there are some common needed packages it would maybe better to build them 
based on a 
common base. So they would also be available for SUSE, Fedora and friends.
