 Hyperbola's objective is to support [[en:start#what_is_the_init_freedom_campaign|the Init Freedom Campaign]]. Hyperbola refuses init systems such as systemd that breaks portability, ignores backwards compatibility, and replaces existing services, forcing into adoption. Hyperbola's objective is to support [[en:start#what_is_the_init_freedom_campaign|the Init Freedom Campaign]].

-==== How is package X different from its counterpart in Arch GNU/Linux? ==== 
  
-Packages are typically modified for reasons such as containing non-free parts, recommending non-free software or branding. Also there are another reasons such as privacy/security issues, instabilities. To find out how a specific package was modified check the blacklist: 
- 
-<code bash> 
-$ grep ''package_name'' /usr/share/doc/your-freedom/blacklist.txt 
-</code> 
- 
-If you're looking for more details, you'll have to clone our [[https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/packages/core.git/|core]],  [[https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/packages/extra.git/|extra]],  [[https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/packages/community.git/|community]] and [[https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/packages/multilib.git/|multilib]] repositories containing **PKGBUILD** files used for building our packages. Grab corresponding **PKGBUILD** from Arch website and just run **diff** on both of them.

-==== Will non-free AUR packages be removed after migrating to Hyperbola? ==== 
- 
-No. Hyperbola doesn't support <color #B90B0B/#FFDDDD>AUR</color> in any way. After migrating to Hyperbola you'll have to verify any installed AUR package and manually remove the non-free ones. Since AUR packages are typically built and installed by user, you can identify them by running: 
- 
-<code bash> 
-$ pacman -Qm 
-</code> 
- 
-Some AUR packages find their way into our official **community** repository. If you can't find the package you need there, ask a Hyperbola dev to pull it. 
- 
-==== LaTeX prints out error messages about missing fonts. How can I compile my document? ==== 
- 
-Some fonts got removed from our TeX Live distribution because of freedom issues and incompatible licenses. Solution to this is to use different fonts and/or different TeX engines.
