That's pretty much the way un-open Solaris has handled it. Any GNU or other GPL'd utilities are shipped on an entirely separate disc, so the OS components do not "accompan[y] the [GPLd] executable[s]". They are packaged such that Sun's own install mechanisms can be used to install them, avoiding the dpkg bootstrap issue.

Debian and Nexenta collide Posted Nov 11, 2005 4:38 UTC (Fri) by kimoto (subscriber, #5244) [Link] What about when I turned on some new hardware from Sun and found some incarnation of of Solaris 8 on it, including working versions of some GPL'd programs like gzip and bash?
