Non-free license agreement

Open effigies opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

There may be issues with regard to automatically installing FSL and other non-free software without displaying (and perhaps prompting for acknowledgment?) of the license agreement.

I acknowledge that it's in the docs, but programmatic installation of software may require more active measures.

Good point. Do you know how neurodebian handles that? As far as I know, users aren’t prompted about the non-free license agreements. Though, they do have to actively use the non-free apt sources.

I do take care to alert the user that FSL is non-free, when they enter a container with fsl installed through neurodocker (not neurodebian).
