Their presense doesn't do anything until they are actually installed. My preference for license defaults requires adding a single line with an alias to make.conf for *both* users who want only free software and users who want anything... In addition, in the Windows world, the administrators need to go to the trouble to click the Accept button on the license agreements whenever they install software. Not much more complicated than saying 'yes' to the license when emerging (interactively). - -- Luke-Jr Developer, Gentoo Linux http://www.gentoo.org/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux)
