CIDER is distributed with its own license (see below) that is not compatible
to DFSG (https://embedded.eecs.berkeley.edu/pubs/downloads/cider/index.htm).
CIDER shall be covered New BSD according to UCB officials, but this
re-licensing is still under discussion
(see https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2016/10/msg00022.html).
Therefore CIDER may not be made available in all software distributions.
