@yomiel @sally @SuperDicq >By default you can't install non-free packages
Yes you can.

By default the "@FREE" license set contains the nonfree Artistic 1.0 license, thus you can accidentally install nonfree Artistic 1.0 software unless you set ACCEPT_LICENSE="-* @FREE -Artistic"

Many packages also have the incorrect license listed, for example every single Linux ebuild is marked as GPLv2-ambigious, even though Linux contains proprietary software with no source code.

>The only thing I might change is an easier way to accept for singular packages.
Absolutely degenerate.

Yes, there is; /etc/portage/package.license

>Many users may be required to accept BINARY-REDISTRIBUTABLE license as mandatory firmware (for their system)
If you install proprietary software, it's no longer your system.

It's *convenient* to load proprietary peripheral software - all systems I can think of will work without it, although you might need a decent Wi-Fi or Ethernet NIC to connect to the internet.

>perhaps a one time accept may be better
Is it really a one time accept if the proprietary software after install never gets removed, only updated?
