Description:

• Arch distributes a version of man-pages with manual pages from the POSIX standard. The man-pages project is permitted to distribute them and Andries Brouwer assumes that re-distribution by vendors is permitted as well. However, modification is definitively not allowed, hence this contribution by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and The Open Group render the entire man-pages package nonfree. The way to solve it is remove all nonfree POSIX manual pages from man-pages package.

Description:
Historically, Icedove was a re-branding of Mozilla Thunderbird by the Debian project, with minimal modifications, in order to resolve branding disputes. Debian since discontinued Icedove after reaching an agreement with Mozilla over the use of it’s trademark.

Otherwise, new Thunderbird will use Quantum, a platform that contains numerous privacy, freedom, and trademark issues, in addition to an ever expanding Google Chromium code base which breaks compatibility with previous versions. Therefore, i suggest port our current Icedove from the deprecated XUL platform to UXP one like our Iceweasel-UXP.

TODO list:

• Remove SSL Error Reporting telemetry from installer/package-manifest.in. [0]

• Add missing emoji browser/fonts/”TwemojiMozilla.ttf” library to UXP sources

• Change Icedove-UXP logo typeface from the non-free “Libertad Book” to free “DejaVU Sans”.

• Rename Icedove to Icedove-UXP in logo typeface.

• Check “Thunderbird” remaining references.

• Fix/adapt confvars.sh to UXP-based applications. (eg. MOZ_APP_VERSION=52.9.`date –utc ‘+%Y%m%d’`)

Description:
Historically, Iceape was a re-branding of Seamonkey by the Debian project, with minimal modifications, in order to resolve branding disputes.

As of December 2013 , Iceape was no longer being maintained by the Debian project and users were encouraged to migrate to other alternatives for security patches.

However, since Seamonkey is being maintained from Thunderbird source and Hyperbola is porting Icedove to UXP platform , it could be built on the UXP platform which contains multiple security and privacy improvements.

TODO list:

• Change Iceape-UXP logo typeface from the non-free “Libertad Book” to free “DejaVU Sans”.

• Rename Iceape to Iceape-UXP in logo typeface.

• Check “Seamonkey” remaining references.

• Fix/adapt confvars.sh to UXP-based applications. (eg. MOZ_APP_VERSION=52.9.`date –utc ‘+%Y%m%d’`)

The unfortunate reality is that x86 computers come encumbered with built-in low-level backdoors like the Intel Management Engine , as well as nonfree boot firmware. This means that users can’t gain full control over their computers, even if they install a free operating system such as Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre .

Hyperbola is working hard to fix these issues and getting closer every day, but for the time being, this is why many current Respects Your Freedom (RYF) offerings are refurbished older devices.

For the future of free computing, we need support architectures that do not come with such malware pre-installed, and the Power9-based Talos II promises to be a great architecture example for workstations and servers environments where Hyperbola is focused since is a fully free long-term support distribution.

Devices like this are the future of computing that Respects Your Freedom and for that reason it’s a high priority for Hyperbola port all packages for the POWER architecture (power64le).

NOTE: POWER porting is focused only for Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre .
