Description: Virtual Richard M. Stallman
The vrms program will analyze the set of currently-installed packages
on a
Debian GNU/Linux system, and report all of the packages from the
non-free
tree which are currently installed.
.
Future versions of vrms will include an option to also display text
from the
public writings of RMS and others that explain why use of each of the
installed non-free packages might cause moral issues for some in the
Free
Software community. This functionality is not yet included.
