Have a look at https://www.devuan.org/. Chimaera is oldstable, but not yet archived.

Re: chimaera-backports in archive.devuan.org

Sorry, you seem to have a silly idea how Devuan works. Even if the Debian 11 Bullseye backports is archived in Debian, it does not mean it will be archived in Devuan Chimaera. Though stopping support for Bullseye backports in Debian means that there will be no new packages coming in from Debian any more for that release.

Re: chimaera-backports in archive.devuan.org

.. and chimaera-backports has (finally?) been removed.

Point your browser at http://deb.devuan.org/merged/dists and http://archive.devuan.org/merged/dists/ to see all available repositories.

Re: chimaera-backports in archive.devuan.org

Just updated my laptop which is still running Chimaera for a reason, and I saw that no release file is present for backports anymore.

Why is Chimaera backports removed? Why is Chimaera different from e.g. Beowulf where backports still is present in the archive?
