Public bug reported:

Here (Located in software-packaging/software-packaging.tex :140 ) the
manual says: "\textbf{Propietary drivers for devices (restricted)} -This
repository contains all the drivers available to devices or hardware you
may use with your computer." Thats not quite right. It only contains
drivers, which are proprietary, not open, not free. This should be
mentioned in the text after the bracket, because no new user knows what
"proprietary" in the beginnin means.
