3 Override unfree licenses to free ones in a derivation.
4
5 This function takes a derivation and replaces any unfree license with lib.licenses.free.
6 Note: This only works for simple packages. Complex packages with unfree dependencies
7 in their build process (like firefox-bin -> firefox-bin-unwrapped) cannot be handled
8 this way and need other approaches.

13 halalify pkgs.someUnfreePackage
