Packages

There is only the source code of the client available and since years nothing more happened. With keybase joining “Zoom” nothing more seems to happen. Look also here in the forum: https://forums.hyperbola.info/viewtopic.php?id=368

I’m writing here about the package Conky. It is the useful widget of system monitor into your desktop, but there are some serious issues:

Config variables

• distribution outputs the string “Arch Linux” instead of “Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre”.
• eve requires users to use API for non-libre/free video game EVE Online, and should be removed.
• All Beep Media Player (BMPx) related variables (including bmpx_album, bmpx_artist, bmpx_bitrate, bmpx_title, bmpx_track and bmpx_uri) are obselete and useless, and should be removed because the package BMPx isn’t present on Arch and Hyperbola official repositories but Arch User Repository (AUR).
• [For Milky Way version 0.4.x only] All PulseAudio related variables (including if_pa_sink_muted, pa_sink_volume, pa_sink_volumebar, pa_sink_description, pa_card_name and pa_card_active_profile) are no longer used, and should be removed due replaced the default audio server with sndio.

Manual

• Contains non-FDSG compliant distros.
• Contains vague terminology.
• Requires users to use API for non-libre/free weather network service(s) (including The Weather Channel).

The aarch64-linux-gnu-linux-api-headers package from [community] compiles using the blobbed Linux kernel source[0], at Parabola it has been replaced with aarch64-linux-gnu-linux-libre-api-headers[1], since this issue is exactly the same as with linux-api-headers.

The solution is to simply compile using Linux-libre sources.

Two formats (including HTML and PHP) are provided to run semi-libre/free web browser Mozilla Firefox in the original code base, but it currently got blacklisted due to numerous branding, security and privacy issues, and replaced by the Hyperbola Iceweasel-UXP. To replace existing strings at the web section in xferc.in:

html = "iceweasel-uxp,iceweasel-uxp,<txteditor>;Hyper Text;html_32x32.png;html_16x16.png;;"
htm = "iceweasel-uxp,iceweasel-uxp,<txteditor>;Hyper Text;html_32x32.png;html_16x16.png;;"
php = "iceweasel-uxp,iceweasel-uxp,<txteditor>;PHP Source;html_32x32.png;html_16x16.png;;"

About that distro, Elementary OS is semi-libre/free, Ubuntu based, long term support, but does not comply with the GNU Free System Distributibution Guidelines (FSDG). To either rebrand or remove existing non-FSDG compliant distro icon files.

This is the last addon I absolutely would need,

It is an all purpose blocker not just for ads.

I would want this to be supported indefinitely in the sense of, whenever a new version comes out, you add the needed fixes they add to the webext one to the legacy version.

This is the last cruical one I need.

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.

eg.

The Free Software toolkit for Secure Sockets Layer and Transport Layer Security
