I see. Well, some parts of scribus and related software that find its way into
our archive are not free enough to be distributed in the "main" Debian
archive, which is why they get put into non-free section. For example,
documentation and ICC profiles are not DFSG (Debian Free Software Guidelines)
free because of their licensing.
