Hello
When querying my devuan version with command
lsb_release -a
the output follows:
hermann@pinkman:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Devuan
Description: Devuan GNU/Linux 3 (beowulf)
Release: 3
Codename: beowulf
hermann@pinkman:~$
What does "No LSB modules are available" mean and if it is important, how can I fix it?
Thanks for an answer

Ask a search engine for more details about this (which you should already have done before posting here btw).

Hello Head_on_a_Stick
Thanks anyway for your answer. But I already did that and there I got the answer that I should install lsb-core, but lsb-core is already installed on my system and that's why I posted the question here. Also lsb-base is installed. I do not know what to do without help. Unfortunately I am just a newbie on Linux/Devuan. My native language is German and probably sometimes I do not understand everything absolutely right, I think.
For help I am really grateful and wish a nice weekend

There is no lsb-core package in Devuan beowulf, it is obsolete.

I have:
# apt list lsb*
Auflistung... Fertig
lsb-base/stable,stable,now 10.2019051400 all [installiert]
lsb-release/stable,stable,now 10.2019051400 all [Installiert,automatisch]

Thanks rolfie.
Here what
apt list lsb
outputs for me:
hermann@pinkman:~$ apt list lsb
Auflistung... Fertig
hermann@pinkman:~$
Nothing obviously
@Head_on_a_Stick:
On https://lwn.net/Articles/658809/ I found: "Debian dropping the Linux standard base". Does this mean that lsb-modules are no longer necessary? And if so, does this also apply to devuan?

You forgot the most important thing: "*"
Have a very close look at what I did post and compare to yours.

Thanks a lot Head_on_a_Stick and Rolfie.
Here is the correct output from apt list lsb*, Yes, I forgot the "*":
hermann@pinkman:~$ apt list lsb*
Listing... Done
lsb-base/stable,stable,now 10.2019051400 all [installed]
lsb-core/now 4.1+devuan2 amd64 [Installed,local]
lsb-release/stable,stable,now 10.2019051400 all [Installed,automatically]
lsb-security/now 4.1+devuan2 amd64 [Installed,local]
hermann@pinkman:~$
But this has no relevance according to Head_on_a_Stick's answer.
Thank you both. I'd like to mark the topic as [solved], but how?
