Hyperbola as project is fully oriented towards the Init Freedom Campaign. Therefore we support also more than only one single init-system since our release of Milky Way v0.4 for Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre and also including HyperbolaBSD in the future. Besides we will always stay true for a system based on a lightweight and simple design making it easy to extend and mold into whatever kind of system you're building. For this we also only support opendoas as replacement for using administrative rights with an unprivileged user-account.
Further details:
We hereby announce a new revision of Hyperbola live image for Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre. With this new version we have removed support for Hypertalking, fixed, updated and added many packages.
Download information can be found here.
Some projects and applications make usage of a different approach for licensing and have even additional serious flaws included. Therefore it is very hard or even impossible to include them within a full freedom-oriented system like Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre and HyperbolaBSD. Therefore to note that we cannot support those, naming Rust for its problematic trademarks and Chromium being nonfree in many aspects.
Further details:
With the release Milky Way v0.4 all parts of D-Bus got completely removed and all included packages within our repositories were selected to be completely usable without any message-oriented middleware and framework. We don't plan to integrate any further support for the framework also in the future for upcoming versions of Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre and HyperbolaBSD.
Further details:
As systemd doesn't follow our Social Contract, we have decided to remove it since Milky Way v0.2. Using a snapshot taken we had remnants of systemd and correspdoning files in packages. With Milky Way v0.4 and beyond all parts of systemd got finally removed as the system was built from the ground up without any further snapshot.
