Hi,
I'm creating a .deb installer for Ubuntu which contains a proprietary
binary.
I was wondering if anyone could point me to the best practice way of doing
this.
Currently I use dh_make to set everything up, but to have everything
legally compliant, I don't think this is the best choice.

Hi,
Is there somewhere a list of the minimal ISA for each supported Debian
architecture?
For example, for armhf, the answer is here:
https://wiki.debian.org/ArmHardFloatPort#Minimum_CPU_.26_FPU
But I did not find this kind of information for all other Debian

Thinking proprietary is a sin in the free software community
Making a fully free replacement is a much better way, don't taint your

Might as well change to windows then, because running non-free isn't that bad

Contacting copyright holder and asking them to release under
