community/python2-biopython 1.69-1
Freely available Python tools for computational molecular biology
See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#FreelyAvailable
Don’t use “freely available software” as a synonym for “free software.” The terms are not equivalent. Software is “freely available” if anyone can easily get a copy. “Free software” is defined in terms of the freedom of users that have a copy of it. These are answers to different questions.

Task Description
Description:
Tuxcards is seemingly published under some GPL license, on the splash screen I did not see which one.
The splash screen claims it is Donationware, which is bringing confusion.
Picture: https://gnu.support/images/issues/2018-06-17-21:35:41.png
Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donationware
So either the splash screen shall be removed, as it is donationware, or author contacted, or package removed as it is unclear if it is free software or donationware. Free software can be sold, and if it is sold, then such software shall not ask for donations again in my opinion.
