-Furthermore we do not rely any longer on external resources, especially for new added packages. Therefore we mirror every needed part of a package on our own and include this within our packaging-scripts. 
   - **SHA-512**: All packages should use SHA-512 cryptographic hash functions only. Other cryptographic hash functions such as MD5 and SHA-1 should not be used because they are severely compromised.

   - **Anti-obfuscation**: obfuscation is the deliberate act of creating obfuscated code, i.e. source or machine code that is difficult for humans to understand. All obfuscated code will be **rejected** without exceptions.   - **Anti-obfuscation**: obfuscation is the deliberate act of creating obfuscated code, i.e. source or machine code that is difficult for humans to understand.

   - **No GNU/Linux-only software**: As Hyperbola is oriented on UNIX we do not support software only for GNU/Linux. As long as there is no need for a driver or any other framework running Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre as transition-base towards HyperbolaBSD we will not add the software.   - **No GNU/Linux-only software**: As Hyperbola is oriented on UNIX we do not support software only for GNU/Linux.
