From the changelog at

  http://packages.qa.debian.org/o/opencascade/news/20090307T154958Z.html

   * Upstream replaced Triangle by a free implementation,
     thus external-triangle.patch is removed as well as
     dependencies against libtriangle-dev.
   * Remove ros/src/FontMFT/*.mft files, these font files
     have no sources.  (As a side effect, closes: #487116)
   * All non-free bits have thus been removed, and opencascade
     is moved from non-free into main.

The license was never really an issue.  There was an explanatory note
which contradicted the license and seemed to add non-free terms, but
that is not the license.

Cheers,
Walter Landry
