Good to know, then I could reinstall 'apt-listchanges should I ever need it, but right now I see no reason for it.

[SOLVED] Failed to check for processor microcode upgrades(x86_64)

There is an amd64 microcode package. I reckon that you should install it. Sorry if I made a mistake, I don't have the best knowledge of hardware and firmware.

Odd error in relation to postfix and /etc/cron.daily/apt-compat

dummy@example.com (Marjorie) — Wed, 08 Jul 2026 11:27:22 +0000

Anyone else seen an odd error message from /etc/cron.daily/apt-compat today?
I'm seeing this on both my desktop PC and on my mail server (both Excalibur).

Otherwise postfix seems to be working OK.

It seems to have been triggered by an update to postfix that landed (in my case in unattended upgrades) yesterday.
There is a new postfix-script but it's in /lib/postscript/sbin not /etc/postfix and the others exist but only dating from an earlier update.

/etc/cron.daily/apt-compat:
tar: .remove-on-upgrade /etc/postfix/postfix-script: Not found in archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
tar: .remove-on-upgrade /etc/network/ip-down.d/postfix: Not found in archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
tar: .remove-on-upgrade /etc/postfix/post-install: Not found in archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

Maybe just an error in the postifix upgrade deb?

@mr-addams

Your script works fine, no issues what so ever. I just mentioned that link for other users that maybe fase a similar issue to just not following those instructions.

Xorg devuan forks

dummy@example.com (fsmithred) — Mon, 29 Jun 2026 18:43:22 +0000

seatd support was added to xlibre a few months ago. I made a freia test live iso with seatd and without elogind or consolekit. Also there's no display manager. Use 'startx' to get a graphical session.

VPN on Devuan 7

dummy@example.com (safari) — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 15:03:17 +0000

I've been pointed towards Stable packages a couple of times now. I wonder why these are not present in the Testing repos if they're fine to install? How does one install Stable packages on Testing?

btw Proton have fixed their firefox VPN extension so one can now install that, at least for web browsing

Audio Input Issues with VMs & Devuan as Host

dummy@example.com (StinkyEmptyAfterlife) — Mon, 08 Jun 2026 08:27:05 +0000

Hello, I've been tinkering around with Devuan as my daily driver and encountered an issue where in VirtualBox, my VMs are not receiving any audio input. I have enabled the options for input/output in the VM's audio settings and tried several different driver/controller options across several guest OSes. Still, I can not get the audio to work. Could anyone here help me set this up properly?

P.S. I installed guest additions, and audio input still did not work.
