If your software comes entirely from Debian's 'main' archive, it's all free software, which means you have freedom to use it whether or not you pay anyone. If, instead, you have some software that is not part of the Debian operating system (such as software from the 'contrib' or 'non-free' archives), you'll need to check the individual license terms for each package you're talking about. This is part of the hassle of non-free software. -- \ "I hope that after I die, people will say of me: 'That guy sure | `\ owed me a lot of money.'" -- Jack Handey | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
