I was, until I realized that straight Devuan has pulseaudio instead of alsa. I think I know the answer to this, but do you remove pulseaudio for alsa in Vuu-do?

Thank you for your help so far greenjeans. So I just tried this again and I'm stumped. I've removed gnome-keyring, gnome-keyring-pkcs11, and libpam-gnome-keyring (while leaving alone Debian and Devuan keyrings), but I'm still getting the keyring not unlocked message when launching Chromium. Maybe it requires a reboot? But that wouldn't work on a live session, so I'll never know. Any ideas now? If not, I guess I'll just wait for a Vuu-do or Crowz release of version 6.

BTW, when I try to unlock the keyring neither the passwords "devuan" or "root"  work, nor "live" either.

So I ran a live session again and tried to delete the keyrings. At some point I noticed there are 3, gnome, debian, and devuan. When I try to delete them all it breaks apt, and it can't be fixed. I'm not a computer guru so I don't understand why trying to delete the keyrings keeps breaking apt. I would like to install this version on bare metal but I'm concerned that if installed this same problem will appear. Any ideas or suggestions?

I'm confused. Then what caused the keyring not unlocked message?

Hi greenjeans. Thanks for these builds. Today I downloaded the Devuan-Mate-Mini-6-20250901_1322.iso version and ran it in a live session. I added the Chromium browser to the live session and when I went to open it, I got a message that the keyring was not unlocked. I dismissed the message, and Chromium worked as it should. To see if I would get the keyring message again, I closed Chromium and then reopened it. I got the keyring message again, but again after dismissing it everything continued to work.

My question is, if I install your spin, will I continue to get this keyring message?

Okay, thanks. And thanks for the heads up on yt-dlp.

I'm not crazy about FluxBB but it sure beats the crap out of discourse. Discourse doesn't work in the Pale Moon browser and they (Discourse) don't care two hoots about it.

The sad irony is that all of the computerized gadgets around today are contributing to this devolving, to use your word.

It looks good. I'm interested. Any estimated time of arrival?

Yeah, it's a two-way street. And I would just direct any to this post by golinux:

BTW, pointing out that you're a left wing nut does not automatically make me a right wing nut.

Yeah, in my haste I forgot. What threw me was having the problem immediately after a reinstall (which never happened to me before). Followed certain advice and got connected to the repos and updated. Thanks everyone.
