Package: dokuwiki
Severity: wishlist

I thought I might use dokuwiki to keep track of my shopping list and when I
need to renew domains and that kind of thing. However, I appear to be unable
to install it without agreeing to allow noncommercial copying of the content!
Does free software ideology really have to infect my notes on arranging my own
household budget and what books I plan to get around to reading? Please let
users easily opt out of having to do this, even if that's simply by more
easily aborting the installation. (Perhaps it could suggest some alternative
wiki package that doesn't insist that I adopt a permissive IP approach to my
notes on which of my children do chores on which days!) There's perhaps too
fine a line between properly encouraging the free sharing of useful things and
looking ridiculous; I absolutely did not expect wiki setup config to include
a step in which I promise not to mind your having all my content.

I am not sure to understand. During the installation, you are offered a small choice of common licenses, some of them free (CC-BY, CC-BY-SA, Public Domain, GFDL) and some of them not (CC-BY-NC, CC-BY-NC-ND). Unless of course you have debconf set to ask only high priority questions, of which this one is not.

Does free software ideology really have to infect my notes on arranging my own
household budget and what books I plan to get around to reading?

Please stay polite when reporting a bug. If I was a bit more touchy, I would have stopped reading here and close this bug report with this only explanation: “no insults or bashing”.

BTW, if you are really afraid of being “infected” by our “free software ideology”, I would strongly suggest that you stop using Debian and choose a proprietary system instead, because Debian has been affected for too long to be saved.

Please let
users easily opt out of having to do this, even if that's simply by more
easily aborting the installation.

# dpkg-configure dokuwiki

When you are asked to choose a license, pick “CC-BY-NC-ND”.

Or, if you want to invent your own license, edit /etc/dokuwiki/license.php to add one, then edit /etc/dokuwiki/local.php to change $conf['license']. If you want no license at all, define a null license with empty string as name and URL.

As there is no bug here since the solution you look seems to exist, I am closing this bug reports.

Regards,
