firefox-esr-
vulnerability CVE-2019-11708 has been fixed in
60.7.1esr-1~deb9u1 on the Debian stretch repo

how long does it usually take for the same security patch to get into the Devuan ascii repo?
it is currently at 60.7.0esr-1~deb9u1

I found the reason for my case of not getting updates. My /etc/apt/sources.list had originally only listed the cdrom (well, actually DVD to be more precise) as sources. That's likely a side effect of not configuring the network in the installer. When I noticed a Raspberry Pi 3 running Devuan Ascii was getting updates that my main X86 system was not getting, investigation yielded that the Raspberry Pi's /etc/apt/sources.list had separate lines for "ascii", "ascii-updates", and "ascii-security" (along with a commented-out line for "ascii-backports"). After changing my /etc/apt/sources.list to mimic the one on the Raspberry Pi, I had ~164MB of updates to download, including Firefox 60.6.1esr.

Thank you, golinux, for your #22 reply. Bug fixes and security updates are all I was looking for. The Firefox ESR updates in question are security updates and bug fixes. Interestingly, even though I had done nothing to my apt configuration, this morning there were over a hundred package upgrades available. Perhaps, the mirrors might not have been syncing.

You may have a look to another road with no gvfs and no udisk2 like udevil and spacefm

IIUC, stable releases get bug fixes and security updates but not newer software. Have you checked the backports repos? That's where you'll find newer software built against stable.

It has been at least two or three weeks again since I have seen an ascii update. For instance, IIRC, Firefox ESR has two updates released (60.4.0 and 60.5.0) but not yet visible through Devuan ascii (60.3.0esr). Or, did I miss a memo that ascii has been EOLed?

That was a good day's worth of work, time to trim nails and play some guitar
Tomorrow will be another day in the system fixing world ... at some point the perfect system
may become ready for some real work.
It is like wood working, it takes a day of messing with metal tools before you even
consider touching any wood.

I guess the gvfs process provide thunar with this ability (mounting and umounting volumes and drives, permanent and temp) and pcmanfm uses
that ability but does not have it on its own. So in order to have this thunar must also be installed, or it came along back with gvfs.
Gui crap! Now I understand what virtual file system means.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. Yep, gvfs does a lot of mounting duty, adds a lot of functionality to Openbox especially.

I flushed xfce and then flushed all the gvfs and wondered if it will reboot

Obviously it riding on clean air now ...

this is after I lock down qupzilla and libqupzilla1 so they will not fly away since they don't exist in ceres?

'apt-get remove' - packages that were automatically installed with the named package will be set to 'autoremove'. Run 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

'aptitude remove' - packages that were automatically installed with the named package will also be removed.

'apt-remove' - I don't know what it will do.

Puzzled and confused about gvfs (virtual file system processes)

I noticed those tasks running and wondered what they do. I did not find much of an explanation so I looked through the dependencies and dependants.
They must have come through the installed xfce that was on the live system I used to install Devuan. Lots of mate cinnamon and xfce dependants, very few items I ever use (engrampa, evince, pcmanfm..) So I used synaptic to see what would come off when uninstalled.

There are 7 of these gvfs pkgs and only the gvfs---bin is not installed, all have plenty of dependants. When I tried to uninstall only those 6pkgs were on the list to be uprooted. None of their dependants. Meaning?? They have alternative dependencies and gvfs is there as a helper?
