OK, I can ignore that one in piuparts.

I didn't look far enough to see this ...

Suggests on contrib/non-free is OK (Suggests is not in the "forbidden"
list in Policy 2.2.1), I think boinc is using that.
For Recommends it's only allowed as non-default alternative (since 4.x,
before it wasn't), but without a free alternative available you can't do
Recommends: free-icc | icc-profiles.
