Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
Aye but we are not talking about Trisquel 8, which does not exist yet. We are talking about Trisquel 7, now.

Unity in Ubuntu 16.04 and Trisquel 8 disables the online searching in the dash by default. You can manually enable it, but who really wants to?
Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
I installed Unity and disabled spying.
Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
Here is useful information on (trying to) remove the spying in unity https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://fixubuntu.com/ Tris 6 is based on 12.04, no spying there and Tris 7 on 14.04 where this needs to be applied.

It is libre, and in my opinion kind of crap, but the data-collection is a turn-off, but as long as you use it right then there is no harm. Whatever, it is your computer.
Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
Ok. I will install KDE, not Unity.
Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
If unity is in the repository then go ahead and install it, but of course remember that Unity has privacy issues. See https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/how-install-unity-desktop-environment-and-create-session-entry-trisquel-70 As for the other packages you mention, they may not be included for various reasons. Perhaps they weren't in Ubuntu at the time. Who knows.
Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
Yes, I wanted to delete libdrm. Now I want to update it. It isn't mistake? I can install Unity packages? And why Tomboy, Freenet and other free software excluded from Trisquel? It is free software!
Re: [Trisquel-users] I want Unity without VirtualBox. Proprietary scope.
Don't be so... zealous. It reminds me of the person who wanted to delete "libdrm" which was direct rendering manager. If it is in the Trisquel repositories, it is free software, except on occasion where the "de-blobbing" of certain packages goes slightly wrong, e.g. certain firmware packages. The Virtualbox packages are so that Trisquel can be optimised for use in Virtualbox. Just because it is not in the Trisquel repository does not mean that we can't support people using Virtualbox to use Trisquel, e.g. in Windows. It is only as bad as making free software for Windows (which is a good thing, as it helps people to transition to free software).

I think mpg321 is free.

I want to install Unity. I think it is free and this is not mistake. But I saw package "unity-scope-virtualbox". VirtualBox is deleted from Free Software Directory and Trisquel Package Repository — it isn't fully free. I saw packages "ACCOUNT-PLUGIN-non-free_service". Install or not install? Free or not?
