@yomiel @lxo >is it a good thing for the user to have the freedom to install these packages or not?
On any free OS, the user has the freedom to install whatever software they want.

Although, if the user installs propriety software and proceeds to shoot their feet with it and blast proprietary shrapnel everywhere, that's clearly a bad thing.

>if the user wants to and knows the risks, isn't it better for it to be well documented, vs the recommended distro's which leave you in the dark?
If the user wants to and knows the consequences, they will be able to work out how to install it just fine.

The only documentation proprietary software should have is reverse engineering documentation, to assist with replacement.
