Hello ,

hvae updated another box to latest Devuan 6.0

this time however incurred some rrproblems, now there is string of errors and i am not
sure if it save to remove those packages.

the issue most likely arose after updating i did run "sudo tasksel" and let remove "cinnamon" and install "mate" instead;
the "xfce" was already installed and running;

now there are some error still
