Hello!

I've looked at the bugs list today as I used to do in the past. While searching 
for a candidate to solve I've found those five:
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?40185
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?40186
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?40187
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?40188
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?40193

Are they really bugs? In all cases there's a word "free" used as in "free
beer" in relation to some propriatary programs which are (or where at
the time of writing the files) free as in beer and nothing more. Noone suggests
using those programs nor the information is visible in the libraries. Should we
really patch those packages? Maybe it's better to mark them as "won't fix" and
move to the other ones?

Happy hacking!
