Re: [DNG] FSF, RMS and a danger to almost all GPL code
Dude, you are part of the problem if you don't understand what cancel culture is, which apparently you do not.

It's an ugly, Foxnews/right wing radio epithet for the time-honored practice of boycotting, perhaps the last tool of power for the average citizen. It's a trope.

I also believe what you just said to be very true, the cancer is in irreversible control. Perhaps this human trait is why typically civilizations and countries only last a few hundred or couple of thousand years then disappear.

Re: [DNG] Package Repository Issue
Well... Uhmmm.. it seems that somehow ( between beer mug refills :-) ) I had managed to uninstall the devuan-keyring package. Needless to say errors were to be expected. devuan-keyring package is re-installed now, all is working normally again. Sorry for the bother, thanks for the replies.
