Details

Description:
intel-media-driver has ENABLE_NONFREE_KERNELS set to ON by default, which enables some closed-source components and makes the final package non-free.

In Debian and other distros, this often makes it two packages to suit more needs. Since this may not be a problem for us, and we are not turning it off, we should probably somehow note it in the pkgdesc.
