NAME
       vrms - report of installed non-free software

SYNOPSIS
       vrms

DESCRIPTION
       This  program is an attempt at creating a "virtual Richard
       M. Stallman" for Debian GNU/Linux.

       This program analyzes the currently-installed package list
       on  a  Debian  GNU/Linux	system, and reports the non-free
       packages that are currently installed to stdout.

       The packages in the non-free  tree  have	restrictions  on
       their  use and/or distribution which cause them to fail to
       meet the terms of  the  Debian  Free  Software  Guidelines
       included	as part of the Debian Social Contract.	However,
       some are sufficiently useful that their presence is  often
       tolerated by Debian users despite their licensing.

       Richard	is  the most vocal among us on the issue of soft­
       ware morality, and we agree with Richard that Debian users
       should have an easy way to know when they are running non-
       free software on	their	systems.   This	program  is  our
       attempt to fill that need.

HISTORY
       This  program  was written by Bdale Garbee and Bill Geddes
       for the Debian GNU/Linux system, in response  to	an  open
       discussion  with	Richard  Stallman  about the issues sur­
       rounding the availability/desireability of the  'non-free'
       package tree in Debian.
