Fedora users use some 3rd party repos, e.g. RPM Fusion > http://rpmfusion.org/ OpenSuSE does include some non-free software (like drivers) in their official repos but for those patent-related packages they have "packman" which is quite similar to Mandriva's plf. In the OpenSuSE-BuildService you can build Mandriva packages but only if they have no dependencies outside main, because not even contrib is there...
And didn't Debian have "non-US" repositories? Oliver
