 No, Hyperbola is just using the package-management from **Arch GNU/Linux** and patchsets from **Debian** with special emphasis on stability, privacy, security and init freedom.

-We support the [[https://www.devuan.org/os/init-freedom]] made by Devuan and forked some Parabola projects such as the [[https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/software/blacklist.git|blacklist]] and [[https://www.hyperbola.info/packages/extra/any/libretools/|libretools]], however Hyperbola is not a distribution based on Devuan, Parabola, etc.+We support the freedom to choose the essential packages like the system for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Init|init]], however Hyperbola is not a system called as "based on" or "fork of".

-Hyperbola is also not following any other system-distribution alone, so it is neither to be recommended to use packages for example from **Arch GNU/Linux** or **Parabola GNU/Linux-libre** nor it would be really possible in general. We are using pacman as our package-manager, but we do everything else on our own and so our packages are also not compatible with other systems.+Hyperbola is also not following any other system-distribution alone, so it is neither to be recommended to use packages for example from **Arch GNU/Linux** nor it would be really possible in general.
