hardy *depends* on non-free artwork?
 

Hi there.
I know vrms is a guide not a definitive tool but would anyone like to
take a look at this:

####

timmy@freedom-zero:~$ vrms
Non-free packages installed on freedom-zero

human-icon-theme Human Icon theme
tangerine-icon-theme Tangerine Icon theme
tango-icon-theme Tango Icon theme
Reason: Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License

timmy@freedom-zero:~$ sudo aptitude remove human-icon-theme
tangerine-icon-theme tango-icon-theme --purge ;vrms

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]

From what I can see gobuntu-desktop meta-package depends on the
non-free package tangerine-icon-theme.

Would someone like to fix this?

Tim

P.S. having just looked at the list I see a post about gobuntu artwork.
I imagine this ties in with that.

AIUI, the FSF consider CC-SA 2.5 to be free, but because its part of the
CC licences, wont support it.

Search down to "Creative commons" near the bottom.

http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html

Debian have issues with CC licences in general, and i belive none are
DFSG free.

Yes, that's right; the FSF considers CC-BY(-SA) free, and Debian don't
(mainly because of the anti-DRM stuff, iirc)

RMS used to not support CC because they promoted a load of licenses
that didn't permit verbatim noncommercial sharing worldwide, but CC
changed their policy and "discontinued" those licenses, so RMS now
supports them. I assume the FSF follows his change.

Apologies.

I'm sure exactly where this leaves me, but that doesn't really matter.
it's interesting that the vrms maintainers have interpreted a non-fsf
point of view, but this isn't the point, and it really doesn't matter to
me whose POV they interpret.

A few minutes after I posted the email I looked again at what the
licence was, thought something looked strange and did the research.

Yeah, so perhaps I should have looked a bit more carefully before posting.

Well also Lessig is on the board of directors.

I'm not sure why to be honest, but this might have soemthing to do with it.

Vrms tends to have inaccuracies like this. It has been considered more
than once to drop it from gNewSense due to the hassle it causes.

And now back to your regularly scheduled Gobuntu discussions...
