Thanks for the detailled explanation.
For a Debian point of view, if you include non-DFSG files, we need to re-create the tarball to exclude them. It's not enough to move them to a screenlets-pack-* package, it should be exclude from the indiv-screenlets-*.tar.gz 

At least, we need a way to identify them easily (like a note on the
README file). For safety, I'll suggest to just remove them from the
source, because non DFSG free mean for most of the cases, non free code.
So for an upstream point of view, it could be safe to remove them,
unless you consider it's still free code.

  CC NC licences not DFSG Free

Bug description:
  Hi, not sure if you saw http://bugs.debian.org/618876

  I'm pretty sure CC's NC licences aren't sufficiently free for Debian
  main or Ubuntu universe.

  Is that material not available under a freer licence?
