I don't know. Good question. I assume that the FSF is not happy Is one of goals of openSUSE making FSF happy?
That is what this thread is discussing. openSUSE is one of the very few distributions that actually has policies regarding free software (openSUSE:Factory _only_ has free software in it). The only thing required for the FSF to like us is that we no longer offer an official or recommended way to download proprietary software. This jump is obviously painful, so my recommendation is that we (at the very least) provide an easy way for users to opt-out of proprietary repositories during install. But more importantly, the reason why I would want that (and is the main reason I opened the FATE in the first place) is because _personally_ I want to be able to avoid proprietary software when using openSUSE. Especially when I'm installing openSUSE for someone else. To everyone complaining about openSUSE then being harder to use by end-users, I would like to remind them that Packman exists and is used by a lot of users -- they already are used to adding add-on repositories to get more codecs for VLC or whatever. -- Aleksa Sarai Software Engineer (Containers) SUSE Linux GmbH https://www.cyphar.com/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
