Time for a little break . . .

@moulder61 . . . Please note that I do NOT read the jokes. I am only a bean counter keeping track or resource usage. It is disturbing

Take charge of your own addiction! Closing this would not be fair to other Devuan users. wink

More posts in this thread today than anywhere else on this forum combined. What's wrong with that picture? Has devuan become a joke? roll

Greetings fellow Devuaneers!

Today marks 10 years since the first Devuan installation isos were released. Jaromil posted the "pre alpha valentine (secret love declaration)" announcement to the DNG mailing list:

So take a trip down memory lane and feel the love for the Devuan team and our users and celebrate their dogged determination which has beaten the odds!

May the fork be with you!

The Devuan Team

Is there benefit to spending ANY time on gaming? wink

The thing is, this is a Devuan package. It should work on Devuan. Users shouldn't need to figure out how to fix it, then fix it, on their own - that's what we have distro developers and maintainers for after all...

Our developers and maintainers are USERS like you. They are neither hired nor paid for their efforts to provide a service for Devuan users. Currently, no one is even bothering to build the installer testing isos so that should put your complaint into perspective! Perhaps consider becoming part of the solution by providing a patch?

Refresher course in Devuan's forum policy from 2016-12-01 for those who have forgotten or never seen it:

The dev1galaxy.org (almost) No Code of Conduct

#190 Re: Off-topic » Statement regarding X community » 2025-01-31 00:09:53

My personal opinion . . . X is poison. I have no idea why anyone with working brain cells would touch it.  But then . . . I never tweeted either. If Debian is leaving X perhaps, for once, they are making a sane decision.

#191 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2025-01-27 15:59:25

@pcalvert . . . Yes, the isos need to be rebuilt regularly. Problem is they may need to be debugged before the iso will work properly.

#192 Re: News & Announcements » November 27 is a day to celebrate! » 2025-01-27 15:55:05

@einpoklum . . . Haven't seen you in a very long time. Welcome back and thanks for the financial support.

#193 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2025-01-23 01:27:47

If you read the edit above . . . the task involves more than just making the isos. Some of the components might also need to be debugged . . .

#195 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2025-01-23 01:02:58

I'm pretty sure this is the current installer iso. Have at it!

Edit: Seems like it is now isolinux installer

#196 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2025-01-23 00:45:05

@Ralph.Ronnquist . . . Didn't you move away from the Debian installer a while ago? Or perhaps I am misremembering.

#197 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2025-01-23 00:20:58

Sadly, hot air may be a comfort in the dreary cold of winter but it will not lift a balloon full of holes . . . If words do not lead to useful action what use are they?

#198 Re: Devuan » Why are systemd files present in Devuan? » 2025-01-22 23:37:43

Why is this conversation even happening when currently no one is building the installer isos! Seems like ya'll have lost sight of priorities . . .
