It does not disqualify the package for non-free, but I would ask that you consider well how having this package in Debian will help Free Software before uploading it to non-free.

Is the software already in wide use, or will including it in non-free increase its visibility -- leading more people to use non-free software? -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
