I see a third option:

3. Check if the program is really DFSG-free when built on amd64 or arm64.

There is a macro called PSYCH_NOLM, where LM stands for "License Management",
and I see it used like this in PsychSourceGL/Source/Linux/Base/PsychPlatform.h:


#if !defined(__aarch64__) && !defined(__x86_64__)
#define PSYCH_NOLM


Maybe a fully DFSG-compliant package, one which does not have to be
moved to contrib, would need this macro to be always defined.

But I don't know the package to tell.

Thanks.
