Gnome is a bug.
Please check out this thread for updated php.
You both failed the challenge offered rather spectacularly. Thread is now locked.
Your final summations remind me of this original Star Trek episode. Same polar dynamic . . .
Are either of you even using Devuan?
Perhaps you can find a more suitable place than this forum to amuse yourselves since you seem to be incapable of evolving beyond such primitive, knee-jerk behavior.
Really . . . get over yourselves . . .
That would depend on your definition of an "update for non-sighted users". There will be a point release in the near future. I suggest that you take your questions to the DNG mail list as there are non-sighted users there who can better answer your questions.

Please do, nothing good will come from it...
It's just a bunch of flaming... which I realize i definitely participated in, but yeah...
This isn't doing anything beneficial.
+1 for locking this dumb thread
Yes, I agree but that's the easy way out of this. I'd rather see a collective effort of restraint that would also serve to challenge each participant's personal growth trajectory. That's a win/win solution for everyone to cultivate the concept of personal responsibility. If that fails, I'll reconsider . . .
Is it time to lock this useless thread?
Hey, kids . . . this sandbox is for adults so take it down a notch.
FWIW, there is no ignore function on this forum. Get along or move on and take your delusions of self-importance along with you . . .
It's rather useless to ennumerate what Devuan should be doing unless you are willing to actually do it.
Info from the devuan.org download page:
The minimal-live.iso (~460 MB) is a full-featured, console-based recovery tool with a focus on accessibility for visually-impaired and blind users. Uses the refractainstaller.
Give that a spin.
A lesson in color perception. The top and middle images share the same background color but the top one looks bluer/cleaner while the middle one looks slightly grayer/greener. The middle and bottom image share the same swoosh color but on a grayer background the bottom swoosh looks much brighter/bluer. The color picker doesn't lie but the eye is quite fickle. The lesson here is that colors are relative to other colors in proximity. Something like what Escher did but with colors. If you can't see those differences . . . well . . . you have plenty of company.

@nixer . . . I'd love to see that horse site. Care to share a link?

The deep sea Chimaera is a magnificent beast!
It's done folks and not going to change (much).
Why change, I like it! Really it is only a start, and will be changed very soon after installing - just like blackhole said.
It's more than the desktop. It is grub and slim/lightdm and website(s) and installer banner and icons yada, yada. There will be no escaping it. ![]()

why do you think I didn't do that ?
Obviously, because you didn't say you did. A proper answer requires a question containing all relevant information. IOW, you get what you ask for.
@golinux FWIW here are a couple of sites that help with color palettes....
You've got to be kidding. I have never found a generated color palette that didn't suck. Why? Because choosing colors by some mathematical formula just doesn't work in the real world. Why? Because colors are relative to the other colors that are proximate and only the human eye can see that.
That's Western reductionist thinking on steroids - thinking not actually seeing.
I used cinnabar colors for Beowulf. That crimson pigment (which is quite toxic) was very popular in the Renaissance.
There has never been a brown theme. That was Ubuntu.
I think you would understand the Chimaera colors if you have this bit of info - my inspiration.
This is the last time I am putting myself through this ordeal. Someone else is going to have to step up to do the next ones.

Finally, have the Chimaera deepsea theme together. Am now getting all the other parts in place. Enjoy your dive to the deepsea floor!
I have never seen a sources.list that looked like that. Maybe have a look at https://devuan.org/os/packages
I have heard that the new kernel is really messed up. And dbus is . . . well . . .
Do not install directly from Debian
I'm not finding the one you need anywhere in the repos:

That's just Google being its usual silly and sucking up to its pals.
No. It's his spellchecker. I still get red squiggles because I have never bothered to add that word.
Have you looked in ascii backports? Might not need to upgrade to beowulf.
It is your spellchecker that is objecting to Devuan. Just add that word and the red squiggle will go away.
