Note that, in practice, the non-libre software flash plugin, opera,
nvidia's drivers and lot of wifi firmwares works well in Debian. I'm
sorry, but, my systems have a little bit of non-free softwares, and
works better with them. No free alternative can allow me to use things the way I want: firefox lacks lot of features opera have, gnash is just
useless in practice for streaming, nouveau does not give me full 3D
acceleration, and there are simply no free wifi drivers.

Even on "totally free systems", your BIOS's code is not free. I like
idealism, but thinking that you can really be completely free is a
dream. And if you want something completely free, go try distributions
approved by FSF. Debian is not, because it eases access to non-free
softwares. In my mind, Debian makes you more free, because it makes you
free to have non free softwares.

But, anyway, I do not think that this debate is useful. No one will
convince others I bet.

You missed the point. I don't claim that there is the need to live in a
perfect world, but the OP should ask Adobe, why they don't maintain
their software. And it's the task of Adobe support to help François, but
we helped him and then were called ayatollahs.

I think he simply overreacted to your words when you said that we can not help, since it is not really true: we can try, and sometimes succeed. About the fact that adobe should maintain their products... I can only agree.
