Contrib packages that probably should be forced into testing

Hi,

This is a list of all contrib packages that would at least get one step
further in britney if a depends on a non-dfsg-free package (non-free or
otherwise) cannot be satisfied. Could you please look into it and add
appropriate hints to get it all tried step further, and unless that
shows new problems, force them in? As long as a britney patch for
'virtual' packages that contrib packages can depend on is not yet
applied, I think this would need to be done manually.

A substantional number fail due to missing dependency on 'java-package',
but that's most likely just due to dependencies on 'java-runtime',
'j2re', and that type of virtual packages, that java-package provides
via helper packages, but can also be satisfied in different ways
(i.o.w., I do not believe inclusion of the packages below should depend
on java-package being in testing, although I do think it'd be good if
java-package were in testing. I'll discuss java-package later, when, the
current version is more mature.)

I list 30 packages below:
