Seems that website doesUser-Aagent sniffing.

Now just lean back and drink gin&tonic for a few weeks while Debian and Laniakea processes it to PureOS green :-D

Package is libhostfile-manager-perl tracked in Debian as bug#916437.

@chris.lamb: Please have a look at the Debian package now in NEW queue, and approve if acceptable.

Seems directly tied to Laniakea: Assigning to @mak

@sean.obrien Is the conversation with Mozilla, leading to their suggesting that particular string, public? If so, please provide URL.

@mladen.pejakovic My point is that "Compatibility mode" is something specific in the context of Firefox.

A known workaround is to configure PureBrowser to impersonate Firefox: https://tracker.pureos.net/w/troubleshooting/firefox_compat_mode/

@kyle.rankin Do you recall more detailed how/where the Tails website broke? Is it still the case?

@sean.obrien Can you please elaborate what more exactly you tested when you wrote "I've tested, and it works".

This issue is bogus - even if package is reintroduced into PureOS: libxnvctrl does _not_ need nor promote non-free software (see T64).

I have come to same conclusion as you, @mak, that this is no Freedom issue, and too painful without any real gain to try solve.

That's your call.

I see several approaches:

Seems directly tied to bootstrapping tools in the hands of Matthias.

@heather.ellsworth I took the liberty of retitling "your" issue here to describe the issue to be addressed.

Fixed upstream in Debian (see T599).

I wonder if we want to have an acceptance criteria for this issue since while it is "closed" it is not "solved" perhaps.

This is T202 - merging into this newer one (instead of opposite) because this one had more details - except for the exact "error message" of the wording of the button when (mis)detected as not being _exactly_ Firefox.

I can suggest to create an issue for each addon, both to track their relationsips (e.g. if an addon like TOS;DR relates to _both_ privacy and freedom), and to track their resolution (i.e. packaging in Debian).

I suspect (but haven't looked closed) that some of the listed addons more appropriately belong in a new separate issue "PureOS is not freedom-governing enough by default".

I took the liberty of changing the title to describe the issue to be addressed here.

Thank you @mladen.pejakovic. From what I can see, this essentially solves the issue no? I think we should close this issue.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. Makes sense to me now :-)

which menu are you talking about? Something inside the PureBrowser window, something part of the window containing PureBrowser, or something in some menu elsewhere (e.g. provided by your desktop environment)?

@sean.obrien you mention "menu items that go nowhere".

Indeed - package has already entered landing so should migrate to green in few days: http://software.pureos.net/search_pkg?term=pyotherside

@sean.obrien I now clarified scopes of issues T110 and T156, and here.

This issue is now about PureBrowser linking to DuckDuckGo non-free JavaScript.

Even if this was meant (also) as a duplicate of T110, we can reuse it to track (only) the related issue of avoiding Javascript not Free licensed.

Sorry for you that your hardware cannot work with Free software.

Fratal no longer depend indirectly on gnulib.

Thank you for clarifying the nature of this issue. Title and priority adjusted accordingly.

PureOS avoid code which Debian or the GNU project considers nonfree - despite others (inlcuding kernel developers) having different opinions regarding licensing and the need for sources of code/data/blobs.

PureOS does not contain the web pages of duckduckgo.com but do indeed currently link to that website.

If you change your system to be a mixture of PureOS and other sources, then your system is no longer a PureOS system.

Please mention which versions of the packages pulseaudio and libasound2-plugins is installed on your system.

Thanks for reporting this issue!

Revert to track only freedom issue (not the related issue of it not being a freedom issue after all).

From Matrix discussions, this might affect Bluetooth as well (mentioning also to improve serch terms)

s/removed/reset/

@mak Do I understand correctly that clamav can now be removed without the need for a dummy package?

more info at https://bugs.debian.org/876087 and T235.

I believe I understand you opinion on this. I then disagree, however.
