Hi,
we discussed already once [1] the situation with proprietary software on our distribution. We agreed on the list and in an IRC project meeting that it's not nice but is very convenient for many users and should stay therefor on media.
I'm opening the discussion again as with that we never will achieve a user friendly licence as already copying of our software on DVD is not allowed and even some mirrors have an issue with this licence. We receive on a regular base inquiries in this regards and bad press [2].
Here is our proposal for new discussion.
Let me ask if this other would be possible:
- During the install, before the point where the "eula" is displayed, ask the user if he wants non-oss software (with help popup possible). Maybe a tick box.
You can have this during the mode selection, where you select add-on. I don't see need to have it on the first page, if the first page has simpified EULA (or no EULA for FOSS-only?).
- If the user wants non-oss software, then display the corresponding eula.
The EULA is part of a repository, so just putting the EULA into repository will make sure user has to accept it. So this would work out of the box. Stano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
