Re: [Trisquel-users] "compiling" libraries

[marioxcc . MT]

It may be used fully free, but it's not so by default, and their idea of what  
is free software is different from the FSF definition so to have a fully free  
system according to the FSF idea you have to watch for the differences (I use  
Debian and also Trisquel, and that is what I do). It seems like you have been  
deceived by their practice of truth by decree: They claim that Debian is  
fully free, because although they distribute, document, support and invite to  
use proprietary software using the same infrastructure, they claim that it is  
not part of Debian. That deceiving practice is even supported by their social  
contract (see point 5), hence that I call it truth by decree (instead of  
facts). In the past, they were even more hypocritical: the kernel (regardless  
of whether the user intended to install the proprietary software) came with  
proprietary blobs. See Debian Doubletalk for more information and also
