Package: python-selenium
Version: 2.2.0-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

It is my understanding that Selenium is non-free because of the .xpi files
which upstream embbeds (and the .xpi contains pre-built .dll for windows
and .so files for Linux). However, Selenium is still useful without these
files. For example, Selenium could be used using the PhantomJS plugin. In
Fedora, that's what they did: they ship Selenium in whatever matches the
"main" repository of Debian, without the .xpi file.

So, could you please upload python-selenium 2.2.0+dfsg1 to main, without
the non-free files, to Debian main? The .xpi files could be shipped
standalone in the non-free repositories if you still want them.

Note that I would really appreciate if you could upload this in Experimental
during the freeze, if the release team refuses to have the change, though it
IMO would make sense to at least try to ask the release team if the change
could go in Jessie.

Last, if you need help, I'd be happy give some. (like if you don't have
upload rights and need sponsoring of the upload, I'm not sure if that is the
case here...)

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
