Stallman created the GNU project, whose goal was +to provide the world with a Free Operating System (with the word "Free" with +the same meaning as in "Freedom"). + +Since then, a lot of Free Software was developed and entire operating systems +based only on Free Software were created. Unfortunately, some data is still +stored in a format that is proprietary, secret and non-standard, made by +corporations that want to retain control over the users of the software that +generates such data. + +This, of course, is meant to keep the users following the newer versions of the +software that "control" the users' data (so that the users can still have +access to their own creations). + +Also, unfortunately, most of the time, the software for manipulating such data +is not Free in the sense desired by Richard Stallman. Software that does not +allow all the freedoms stipulated by Richard Stallman is called non-free +software. + +The vrms program provides the facility for users of Debian-based Operating +Systems (like Ubuntu Linux to detect if their systems have any non-free +software installed, so that the users can keep their computer "pure", without +non-free software. + +The package is now maintained by a team of developers including Bdale Garbee +(the original author of the package), Stephen Moraco and Rogério Brito on +Debian's alioth system. + +The source code is maintained with a version control system called Subversion. +Anybody can obtain the source code for the vrms package from alioth.debian.org +and any collaboration is highly appreciated. +EOF diff --git a/utils/vrms/HISTORY b/utils/vrms/HISTORY new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..e596924293 --- /dev/null +++ b/utils/vrms/HISTORY @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +2008-01-23 Eric Sandall <sandalle@sourcemage.org> + * DETAILS, BUILD, INSTALL: Created + diff --git a/utils/vrms/INSTALL b/utils/vrms/INSTALL new file mode 100755 index 0000000000..c026a4a095 --- /dev/null +++ b/utils/vrms/INSTALL @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +cd $SOURCE_DIRECTORY && +chown -R root:root . && +install -m 0755 vrms $INSTALL_ROOT/usr/bin/vrms && +install -m 0644 vrms.1 $INSTALL_ROOT/usr/share/man/man1/vrms.1 && +mkdir -p $INSTALL_ROOT/usr/share/$SPELL && +cp -a reasons $INSTALL_ROOT/usr/share/$SPELL diff --git a/utils/vrms/vrms_1.13.tar.gz.sig b/utils/vrms/vrms_1.13.tar.gz.sig Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000000..0507fbc825 --- /dev/null +++ b/utils/vrms/vrms_1.13.tar.gz.sig |
