<ul><li><strong>Assignee</strong> set to <i>oaken-source</i></li><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>unconfirmed</i> to <i>confirmed</i></li></ul><p>I checked all four of the packages named above and your assessment seems to be correct.</p>
<p>I have checked the pkgbuild, and there is one more trivial batch script removed from the package, but that does not constitute a freedom issue.</p>
<p>I'll wait for a second opinion on this, but I think we can unblacklist this as well.</p> Packages - Freedom Issue #2699: Re-evaluate [texlive-latexextra]https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2699?journal_id=141892020-04-18T14:53:08Zoaken-source
<ul></ul><p>I retract my statement. the issue here is the declaration of code into the public domain, which, depending on the circumstances, may be void:</p>

<ul></ul><p>I would really like to contribute to resolve this issue.<br />As for now, only the license of the package "authoraftertile" needs to be resolved, right?</p>
<p>How can I do this? E.g.<br />- ask fsf whether it qualifies as free<br />- ... ?<br />if it is definetly not free:<br />- Ask author to change license<br />- Ask TeX Live maintainer to remove this package</p> Packages - Freedom Issue #2699: Re-evaluate [texlive-latexextra]https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2699?journal_id=150832020-07-19T22:11:20Znona

<p>axessibility was already removed from TeXLive.

<p>�So, AFAIK there are no more freedom issues with texlive-latexextra and it can be unblacklisted.</p> Packages - Freedom Issue #2699: Re-evaluate [texlive-latexextra]https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2699?journal_id=151072020-07-22T01:25:34Znona

<p>In fact, it is now the package itself which needs to be updated (the tar--or zip that is brought from Arch Linux by the PKGBUILD, and the tar that is on the Parabola GNU/Linux repos). The changes need to be reflected there (how do we achieve that?).</p> Packages - Freedom Issue #2699: Re-evaluate [texlive-latexextra]https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2699?journal_id=176152022-05-10T12:29:19Ztheova
<ul></ul><p>Looking again at this issue, I see no obstacle for removing this package from the blacklist.</p>
<p>What is the state? Can somebody remove it from the blacklist?</p> Packages - Freedom Issue #2699: Re-evaluate [texlive-latexextra]https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2699?journal_id=177262022-06-07T23:46:23Zgap
<ul></ul><p>To clarify, which versions are affected with freedom issues and which version is the earliest free version?</p>
<p>As others have pointed out, if there are no more freedom issues then it should be removed from the blacklist.<br />Are we sure the newer versions don't have any new freedom issues?</p>
