I'd guess this would be pretty simple.

If we are to give it a "pure GNU/Linux" stamp, it must contain Free
Software only. So every package on the distribution must qualify
according to the Free Software definition of the FSF.

This of course includes setup programs and such.

Regards,
                Georg
