It's trivial (I always overwrite it to simply put "*"), but why someone |
| 10 |
installing a package not using that FREE licenses will need to edit it? |
| 11 |
How does it "promote" free software? I don't think making installation |
| 12 |
of other software more difficult is the right way to promote it. |

What apart of showing users a new "error" by default adds this decision? |
| 15 |
I think the way to promote free software is to be sure our virtuals list |
| 16 |
free alternatives in first time, that way people will get free software |
| 17 |
when packages are providing same functionality. |

But feel free to do what you prefer, I haven't ever expended much time |
| 20 |
in all this licensing stuff (even preferring free licenses) and I know |
| 21 |
how this usually end (this reminds me last time I talked with an openBSD |
| 22 |
developer that works with my father about how he disagrees with GPL and |
| 23 |
similar :P) |
