Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
Freed-ora is an RPM repository of Linux-libre releases. It also includes packages that remove and prevent installation of nonfree firmware and microcode updates (this is the only nonfree software included in Fedora releases). Look on the Linux-libre website for more information.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
Okay, one other thing comes to mind though, Is there a special repository for Freed-ora? One that has free software packages that fedora don't have?

I can also confirm it is not present here in a Debian Unstable system.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
I believe Fedora disables the OpenH264 download. I would expect them to disable the download of the DRM blob too, when it is enabled in next version of Firefox.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
Well, how then can it be free as in freedom in any way shape or form? I really don't understand why it says that on their about area. Regardless though I wish I knew when trisquel 8 was coming out.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
deblobbed is not the right word they recommend nonfree addons and i think firefox might include drm. but it is still open source.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
but is, thunderbird and firefox deblobbed? that is what I need to know...
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
For an RPM-based distribution, your best bet is Fedora with Freed-ora kernel. Fedora gets updates every 6 months like Ubuntu does. This is the time for testing etc and I see no problem.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a libre version of opensuse?
Although, I wish that there was a rpm based distro that was updated frequently like fedora is (only completely libre) due to the fact that fedora lacks things such as icedove or abrowser/iceweasel.
