| Kamilla 'ova | in my opinion, building all unfree packages is good, but publishing them in a public cache is bad | 13:13:22 |

in my opinion, building all unfree packages is good, but publishing them in a public cache is bad for unfreeRedistributable it seems like a good idea if someone is willing to take on the risk. unfortunately lib.licenses.unfree often means "impossible to build without committing a copyright violation"; we have it overloaded with a hypothetical lib.licenses.illegal | 13:14:24 |
| emily | so it's a quite significant risk to do it for lib.licenses.unfree even in the absence of redistribution | 13:14:36 |
| Kamilla 'ova | I think adding redistributableOnly option to release-unfree.nix will be fine | 13:14:38 |

I think hydra.nix-community.org also provides a way to download the output but it throws an exception inside the hydra code (https://matrix.to/#/#nix-community:nixos.org/$I6ODgqJ-1MNHvgq_lBx2AtpUA-q2p1llHYHAyMzKlGg) | 13:18:46 |
