(Get the code!)
Back to Fix Released. Frankly, I do not see this as a bug at all. Are we now to restrict contributions to Linux, Ubuntu, etc to *only* free software? Then -- for example -- we must also prohibit most of the pictures that are taken, since most of the photographic equipment uses proprietary firmware to work. This simply does not make sense.
The way I see it, I am glad this was done and provided under a FLOSS-compatible licence. Certainly, I would be even more glad if it was done via GIMP, or whatever, but I am not going to refuse it on these grounds.
If you do not like the fact that someone did something to help using proprietary software, you are free to reverse-engineer it, and redo the work using whatever you think is appropriate.
