[05:56:39] <|esthar|> Kind of unhappy about that... [05:58:11] http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee130/OuterHaven160/a_winrar_is_you.jpg [05:58:23] |esthar|: isn't unrar provided with source code? [05:59:40] <|esthar|> werdna: the unrar I had to install is the non-fee one that can properly decompress RAR 3.0 files. I run Debian, and had to specifically enable non-free repositories on my server so that I could download it and use the extension. [06:00:20] mmm, you could have installed from source. [06:00:28] But you are right, it is kinda annoying to demand a non-standard utility. [06:00:42] Whether it's 'free' or not doesn't bother me so much as whether or not it's standard. [06:00:48] why did you need it? [06:02:19] <|esthar|> I specifically have an issue with the fact that it is not freely licensed. [06:02:41] <|esthar|> I think that it's non-free nature makes it non-standard. They are intrinsicly related. [06:03:06] <|esthar|> I needed it for the extension "AWC's Forum" [06:08:58] |esthar|, not sure that is extension is Open Source anyway [06:09:20] at least they do not provide any license [06:09:53] oh, CCA-SA 3 [06:10:23] 03(mod) SVG element missing when image is downsized - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9110 (10N/A) [06:19:06] *Hojjat pats CIA-6 [06:19:47] ooops. tried to post in their forums about it; got a MWexception :) [06:27:09] <|esthar|> NicDumZ: It's CC-BY-SA 3.0 [06:27:14] <|esthar|> Certainly Free.

[06:31:00] mmm, recentchanges does have a bit of a bug with API move suppressing redirect, heh [06:31:01] 06:02 < |esthar|> I think that it's non-free nature makes it non-standard.

Splarka (Talk | contribs | block) moved New Page to New Page2 (New Page is a red link, suppressed redirect) [06:31:27] It's only 'non-standard' because people like debian and ubuntu put all this scare and hype around "free as in speech" stuff.

[06:31:49] anyway, there are 'free software' versions of unrar [06:33:15] <|esthar|> Werdna: You'd be daft to try and state that software freedoms are irrelevant in the age of restrictive copyrights and increased reliance on microcomputing. [06:33:45] <|esthar|> Anyway, the freely licensed unrar utilities available are *NOT* capable of decompressing RAR 3.0 [06:34:03] <|esthar|> Practically any RAR you run across is 3.0 though. [06:34:17] <|esthar|> Hence, forced reliance on the non-free one. [06:38:30] |esthar|: Free *formats* are one issue, but free *software* is another entirely.
