It's less serious in that it's possible for the software to work without
non-free packages, which comes closer to satisfying the requirement in
Policy.  The trend of opinion in the tech-ctte at the moment, however, is
that it's still a bug if a package in main pulls in a package from
non-free by default when non-free is enabled.
