Sorry but you didn't get it. GNU is a concept, an ideology, not
just an
operating system.
so you are trying to load a concept and an ideology? It wont work.
You need an operating system and a kernel:
either GNU + Linux (which the faithful refer to as GNU/Linux
or
GNU + Hurd (which the faithful refer to as GNU
or
*BSD
These terms have been long ago defined and accepted. Please stick to
them. (unless you are deliberately trying to create trouble - in
which case go ahead)
GNU=LibreSoftware. Whether it is an OS or an application. You are free
to draw your own conclusions.
GNUCash, GIMP, GPG, GNU/Linux etc.
