vrms

Got caught by a meme bug from Planet Ubuntu, so Mr vrms, here goes:

zakame@perlis:~/blog/memes$ vrms
               Non-free packages installed on perlis

autoconf-doc              automatic configure script builder documentation
emacs23-common-non-dfsg   GNU Emacs shared, architecture independent, non-DFSG i
firmware-iwlwifi          Binary firmware for Intel Wireless 3945, 4965 and 5000
make-doc                  Documentation for the GNU version of the "make" utilit

  4 non-free packages, 0.3% of 1524 installed packages.

This is on my laptop running Debian Sid. Here's my /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sid main

I installed the non-free packages manually. As seen on the list, its just mainly non-free GFDL documentation for the GNU tools (oh, the irony,) and firmware files for perlis' Intel 3945 wireless. Interestingly, there's no corresponding -doc package for automake, due to its documentation having no invariant sections and cover texts, passing muster to vrms' (nee Debian's) interpretation of the GFDL.
