Hello every one:

There used to be a game called abuse in taranis, and I see that is not available in Belenos. Not only that but there seems that is not available in the repos archive. Taranis points to the following URL for the game but it's also not available:

wget -c http://es.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/pool/main/a/abuse-sdl/abuse_0.8-2_amd64.deb

Looking on the repos archive, only abuse-frabs and abuse-lib are still available.

So, could it be that it was found that it wasn't free software after all? I knew there was a problem with the sound copyright, I wonder if the game was also not free software.

Thank you all.

Some time ago (shortly after the release of Trisquel 7, I think) there was a problem of some sort with the script that filters proprietary software out, and a lot of libre programs were unavailable. I suppose Abuse might have been missed or something when that was fixed? Just conjecture on my part, though.

The source code and shareware data minus the sound effects were released to the public domain, so Abuse is definitely libre as long as you don't include the sounds.

The entry in that page is about abuse-frabs, which is an extension, not Abuse itself.

that's funny. Abuse-frabs was the one that didn't get left out xD
Maybe the recommendation of leaving out "Claudio" was taken.

Do you think I should report this as a trisquel's bug?
