Devuan does not provide an official way to contribute a "PPA".  However sometimes users will share their builds on the "Off-topic" section of this forum.  For example, in this thread https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3331 tdrnetworks is providing up-to-date php builds without systemd.

But also check the daedalus and ceres repositories.  The latest shiny FF might be there.

Do you distinguish between two things, sir?  A production system and develop and learn new things?

Some day even you will be able to handle the pieces. It's all about experience.

I thought we had a forum like this to, among other things, develop and learn new things, not to be negative about new ideas and progress. But I'm so incredibly blown away and stupid so I do things that I feel like to test and learn, not that other say I should do.

Devuan package repositories are exclusive. Other repositories, including Debian, Ubuntu, Mint etc, should NOT be used directly.

Personally, I would never touch anything from the 'buntus.

But your choice and you get to keep all the pieces.  smile

Hi again @golinux,

First, excuse me to change the subject a bit.
Since we are talking about packages, currently Firefox and Thunderbird are at version 78.
How can I contribute builds from newer versions, like 91.

If there is a package on that list that you want, you are welcome to  contribute to Devuan by forking it.

I am using Ubuntuzilla repo for latest Firefox since ascii release. It installs on /opt; thus isolating from Devuan/Debian installation path. 
You can use following lines in /etc/apt/sources.list:

I cannot absolutely guarantee it, since it's a 3rd party repository. YMMV. 

# Ubuntuzilla for Firefox browser
 deb http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ubuntuzilla/mozilla/apt all main

If the above auto resolver persistently selects slow mirrors, try below line, instead of above:

 deb https://altushost-swe.dl.sourceforge.net/project/ubuntuzilla/mozilla/apt all main

But these packages are rebuilt without dependency on systemd or will they never appear in Devuan?
Sorry for my ignorance.

This version still has packages with SystemD?
