This bug was created ~2.5 years ago.  These 3 packages are all under the
artistic license 1.0 (non-free).  I have emailed the developers (see bug
report) at the advice of RMS to try to liberate the software and get
them to change to the Artistic 2.0 license.  They pretty much indicate
this is impossible and one of the admins/devs states they chose that
license because it prevents selling the software.

We should remove it ASAP since we can't liberate it.
