UnityLinux has PLF repositories

The PLF folks have been very kind to us and have provided Unity with user accounts and server space on their mirrors. This allows us to upload and distribute packages in order to avoid conflict with patenting laws or legal restrictions in various countries.

PLF stands for Penguin Liberation Front and is a packaging project dedicated to distributing software that cannot be included in Linux distributions for various reasons, related to geographical variations in legislation regarding intellectual property, licensing,  security and other issues.

So, be sure to keep a heads up for new packages in the channels to install on the latest developer snapshots. (Note: Developer Snapshots only!) Also, be sure to install the smart-channels-plf package to enable the plf channel in the Smart packaging manager, using the following command as root:

smart install smart-channels-plf

To find your own PLF-mirror, take a look at http://plf.zarb.org/mirrors.php

Thanks for using Unity Linux and sticking with us as we work to get a public beta released
