Currently we are supporting the following Git hosting services:
> GitHub
> Bitbucket

GitHub, as everybody knows, was acquired by Microsoft last year (2018)
https://news.microsoft.com/2018/06/04/microsoft-to-acquire-github-for-7-5-billion/

And Bitbucket, like GitHub, is a centralized non-free git service.

There are other packages made for GitHub which haven’t been removed, but as you were deleting the certbot-dns-* packages that depended on a US-based DNS provider company, I thought you may wanted to know this.

Prior version 0.0.25 and below are outdated.

Since version 0.100 and later, there are some changes being redesigned from scratch, added three new weights (including extra bold, light and thin) but not italic or oblique styles, AppStream metadata translations from contributors, and more.

See the version history releases for more details: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cantarell-fonts/raw/master/NEWS

community/btchip-udev 2-1
*    Udev rules to connect BTChip wallet to your linux box

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Linux

Description is referring to operating system, and not to the kernel itself (Linux). It shall be amended.

community/bsd-games 2.17-17
     Linux port of the collection of BSD command line games

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Linux

Description is referring to operating system, and not to the kernel itself (Linux). It shall be amended.

Description:

The description of the package need to be changed to accommodate:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html

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.

extra/breeze 5.9.5-1 (plasma)
    Artwork, styles and assets for the Breeze visual style for the Plasma Desktop

Description:

extra/bogofilter 1.2.4-2.hyperbola2
    A fast Bayesian spam filtering tool, without noncommercial files

That shall be clarified better in description.

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Commercial

Please don’t use “commercial” as a synonym for “nonfree.” That confuses two entirely different issues.

community/bluez-tools 0.2.0-1
     A set of tools to manage Bluetooth devices for Linux

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Linux

Description is referring to operating system, and not to the kernel itself (Linux). It shall be amended.

The current version of BleachBit needs to be adapted so it can clean the new .cache/hyperbola/ directory.

community/backuppc 4.1.2-1
     Enterprise-grade system for backing up Linux, Windows and MacOS PCs

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Linux

Description is referring to operating system, and not to the kernel itself (Linux). It shall be amended.

Further words such as Windows and MacOS shall be removed as they steer users towards proprietary software.

Could it be possible to add :

Description:

community/avrdude 1:6.3-2
    Download/upload/manipulate the ROM and EEPROM contents of AVR microcontrollers

Description is vague because of the word “content”. The word itself is fine in English language, but here it is used out of the proper context. And it is not not necessary at all. When one knows what is the abbreviation of ROM, such as Read-Only Memory, then any mentioning of contents of ROM is needless. It is enough to say: “Download/upload/manipulate the ROM and EEPROM of AVR microcontrollers”

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Content

What do you think ? Avideo is not updated anymore, can’t we use regular youtube-dl instead as RMS himself say :

“youtube-dl is okay to be in the Directory because it does not actually execute nonfree JS as we first suspected.”

Source : https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Youtube-dl Also : https://github.com/fent/node-ytdl-core/issues/222

By default, the ‘disable-publishing’ parameter in the [publish] section of avahi-daemon.conf is set to ‘no’, which can be seen in my opinion as a privacy issue as avahi broadcasts the hostname without the user’s consent even though this has been explicitly disabled in the settings of networkmanager.

Description:

default configuration is /etc/auto.master instead of /etc/autofs/auto.master

admin→ sudo /usr/bin/automount -v -f -p /run/autofs.pid
Starting automounter version 5.1.2, master map /etc/auto.master

extra/asp 1-1
     Arch Linux build source file management tool

See:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Linux

Description is referring to operating system, and not to the kernel itself (Linux). It shall be amended.

I propose to change the name of the package and software itself to be hgsp or hsp instead asp, and that description says “Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre build source file management tool”

Description:
I believe the arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-gcc package to be broken as described here.

Additional info:
* package version(s) - arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-gcc - all versions

Steps to reproduce:
I don’t think “steps to reproduce” to be relevant in this case. My forum topic linked above already contains all the necessary info on the subject :) However, one could try compiling glibc and busybox as described here. Yes, these are instructions for debian-like systems. They have to be adapted accordingly
