The man page of pacman says:

DESCRIPTION
        Pacman is a package management utility that tracks installed packages on a Linux
        system

And I propose to change “Linux system” to “GNU/Linux system”.

xmind when installed is showing that “this version is not licensed”, so that cannot be right. Even though there is GPL license on Github, that vague information in the software can and is wrongly understood:

Further it is asking for license key to get the “Pro” version.

Thus xmind is pointing to proprietary software.

That means xmind shall be removed from Hyperbola immediately as such as it is now cannot be in the fully free GNU distribution.

Description:

community/purple-facebook 0.9.3-1
    Facebook protocol plugin for libpurple

It is up to maintainers to decide of course. IMHO I would remove this one as it uses proprietary network Facebook, exclusively, and even mentioning the word in the package.

See:
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html

A free system distribution must not steer users towards obtaining any nonfree information for practical use, or encourage them to do so.

Description:

I have tried to upgrade hyperbola.

Critical upgrades cannot be installed when wesnoth is installed, there are conflicting files

Description:

Apache web server shall be running with or without the external network, and without NetworkManager.

rc-service httpd start

will give the message that NetworkManager must be started first, and will not start apache web server. I cannot find in which file is that written.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Disconnect network. Start computer.

2. Try to start apache with above command.

That makes no sense, as Apache can run on local network without NetworkManager and it is not written in the description.

I was using GNU Emacs, and tried to export LaTeX file or make a PDF. It seems that texlive package is broken, some fonts are missing.

The group named texlive-most cannot be properly installed.

Description:

https://proj4.org/index.html

This package have valuable geodetic applications, and I intend to present Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre soon in universities and schools in East Africa.

The coordinate system there is not WGS84 and this package only in new version is providing the conversion from East African geographic coordinates to WGS84, and will be very usable in many industrial and private applications.

Description:

after upgrade there are errors that shall not be there. I cannot know why.

Description:

groff is typesetting system similar to TeX/LaTeX however, it is very small and very usable. It is not built properly with URW fonts, or such are missing, I cannot know all details. Overall groff package is basically somehow broken.

It shall depend on proper fonts, and such fonts should already be built, including their Unicode versions.

Package is only partially built.

This is same issue as on:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1151273

The paths changed and trying to mount davfs file system defined in /etc/fstab fails with error: unknown file system davfs

To remedy, I made symlink in /sbin to mount.davfs

The transition of paths had to take that in account as many mounted remote disks failed after upgrade.

According to:
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html

we shall avoid vague terminology such as “open source”, please see here:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Open

It would be good example to set to have proper description of packages without using “open source”.

That is why I propose for all the packages here listed to change the term in their descriptions from “open source” to free (libre) software.

Description: FreeCAD may be free software, yet its features are steering users towards non-free software. It is asking for Teigha File Converter which is proprietary software, and it is asking for the path in order to enable the option import/export.

Additional info:

* package version: community/freecad 0.16-9

Steps to reproduce:

After attempt to open the DWF/DXF file FreeCad is to request the Teigha File Converter which is proprietary software.

Under the menu Edit → Preferences → Import/Export → DWG, one can see the request to enter the path to Teigha File Converter.

Teigha File Converter with proprietary license

community/classpath 0.99-3
    A free replacement for Sun's proprietary core Java class libraries.

My suggestion is to describe what software does, and to remove that it is free replacement for proprietary code, as it gives some kind of legitimacy to proprietary software.

extra/mp3wrap 0.5-4
     Tool for wrapping mp3 files. A free independent alternative to AlbumWrap

Description is pointing to proprietary software, it should not, it shall be changed.

It is not alternative to proprietary, and description shall be changed. It gives some kind of legitimacy to proprietary software.

community/pinta 1.6-2 [installed]
     Drawing/editing program modeled after Paint.NET. It's goal is to provide a simplified alternative to GIMP for casual users

I am not quite sure what the policy is in Hyperbola on this one. I am referring to the reference to the proprietary software Paint.NET. That is for me steering users to verify what is Paint.NET – we shall not be doing it. It should be removed from description.

I am fine if authors have in documentation something explaining how they started software project. But I am not fine in descriptions which are public and accessible on Internet to have such references to illegitimate proprietary software.

Just to clarify, the word “alternative” is just fine in this description and need not be removed.

To refer to published works as “assets”, or “digital assets”, is even worse than calling them “content” — it presumes they have no value to society except commercial value.
