no problem if installed gnustep-base, removing gnustep-*-libre would be a simpler solution
-
why? the previous revision of unarchiver proved that there is no need for gnustep-{make,base}-libre
-
the i686 netinstall worked with kvm on x86_64 host, but it didn't list the device expecting a different name, it wasn't locking up
-
kvm with libvirt (e.g. via virt-manager); Parabola is difficult to install using virtio block devices, so IDE emulation is needed
-
doesn't it need 3d acceleration and more memory than any supported machine has?
-
there is probably no obvious size criterion for that, it can be seen in some cases; I'm not a lawyer
-
this doesn't conflict with "trivial, uncopyrightable code in source form is free"; or is trivial JS as diffic. to edit as binary shared lib?
-
licenses affect only copyrighted code, this could be too unoriginal to be copyrighted; I think this wouldn't be clear enough for inclusion
-
it shouldn't be difficult to find a <10 lines script without copying information in a distro, "proprietary apps" known to me are bigger
-
trivial code is too unoriginal to be restricted by copyright, has understandable source without comments, how it's not free?
-
this depends on data structure; I'd use JSON, it's very easy to use with Python and smaller than XML (while readable with good text editors)
-
http://ur1.ca/7ls9q might help; diff. formats are good for Web, shell scripting, or program config.
-
"agree to continue" is different than e.g. "you must install Python 2.5 to use this program" which would be probably considered free
-
laws usually disallow using software for illegal matters; it's specified as a licensing requirement? or does it specify which laws apply?
-
we don't support ARM, if you can convince us that this doesn't need nonfree software (incl. GPU driver) and can help, maybe this will change
-
Arch/Parabola relation is different than Fedora/Blag or Gentoo/Ututo? "libre OR nf" is what most non-FSDG distros do
-
I don't understand what you consider non-derivative, why not search http://ur1.ca/69xfc for other free distros based on community distros?
-
no, Parabola is a derivative and doesn't have a nonfree version
-
resubscribe at http://ur1.ca/692gn ; http://ur1.ca/692qg lists some ways to help
-
unless you need to e.g. extract only some files, ununrar can be used by these, http://ur1.ca/64ulc (it's packaged in Parabola)
