Hi,
Sadly, the risk to the stability of your system is as nothing compared to the
fact that the software repository you refer to is riddled with proprietary
(non-free) malware. Therefore, it cannot be recommended in any way.
gNewSense is a 100% Free Software operating system. That is as in freedom of
speech, or freedom of expression.
I don't wish to be patronising, but I think it would do you good to have a
deeper look at the gNewSense website along with those at:
I understand your concerns, and I fully share them. My intention was
to have the option to aquire those libraries which, while free, cannot
be distributed by Debian/Ubuntu/gNewSense for legal reasons, not
getting proprietary stuff.
I apologize - I should have made that clear in my first mail.
Kind regards,
Andrei
