Have you ingested some mushrooms ? What you write here is a total screw-up non-sense ! 1st : There's no "government" in Linux. It's a community driven project, like Debian. 2nd : You talk about Ubuntu repository, sorry, beep, bong, whatever, wake-up call, this is Debian, no Ubuntu repository here. 3rd : What's the link between Snap/SnapD/Brltyy and SystemD ? Plus, they’ve totally screwed up Digital > Ocean and more or less OVH, so I need a unique kernel (and physical > servers) to host my wholesome websites.

I'm running many OVH rack and none of them have any problem running Debian Buster or Bullseye, straight out of the box. > > I’m not doing anything malicious, and the repositories seem to have > extremely flexible licensing, so what’s the problem?

Everyone talk for their own self. I think you are missing a really important part here... There's no "central" entity that will give you a "go a head" on the name of others. It's not like working for IBM where you employer hold the copyright of your works. > Salud de Mexico, > John (Tarbal) -- Polyna-Maude R.-Summerside -Be smart, Be wise, Support opensource development
