Votre GNU/Linux est il libre ? Mais comment savoir !?

Vous souhaitez savoir si votre OS est libre ? Et si ce n’est pas le cas comment faire pour le rendre libre ? VRMS (Virtual Richard Matthew Stallman ) se charge de ça, c’est un petit software découverts chez Petitbob.

  • La page du Man sur VRMS

This program began as an attempt to create a « virtual Richard M. Stall?
man » for Debian GNU/Linux. Thus the choice of name.

This program analyzes the currently-installed package list on a Debian
GNU/Linux system, and reports the non-free and contrib packages that
are currently installed to stdout. In some cases, such as regarding
documentation licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License with
invariant sections, the opinions of Richard M. Stallman and the Debian
project have diverged since this program was originally written. In
such cases, this program follows the definition of freedom embodied in
the Debian Free Software Guidelines.

The packages in the non-free tree have restrictions on their use and/or
distribution which cause them to fail to meet the terms of the Debian
Free Software Guidelines included as part of the Debian Social Con?
tract. However, some are sufficiently useful that their presence is
often tolerated by Debian users despite their licensing.

The packages in the contrib tree are themselves free software but have
some dependency on non-free software for their use that make them wor?
thy of reporting so that their use can also be consciously considered.

Richard is the most vocal among us on the issue of software morality,
and we agree with Richard that Debian users should have an easy way to
know when they are running non-free software on their systems. This
program is our attempt to fill that need.

Pour l’installer rien de plus simple (en root):

apt-get install vrms

Ensuite on le lance dans un terminal (oui pas d’interface graphique):

vrms

Et tout de suite les statistiques apparaissent.

Comme vous pouvez le constater mon OS est libre à 99.7%, ce n’est pas mal. La faute à ATI (merci) et aux polices Microsoft (j’en ai besoin pour bosser).

Je suis avec une Ubuntu pour le moment, comme vous le voyez, il n’y a pas de Flash installé on s’en passe (même si ce n’est pas facile)
