INFORMATION CHANGES
       A Release file contains beside the checksums for the files in the repository also general information about the
       repository like the origin, codename or version number of the release.

       This information is shown in various places so a repository owner should always ensure correctness. Further more
       user configuration like apt_preferences(5) can depend and make use of this information. Since version 1.5 the user
       must therefore explicitly confirm changes to signal that the user is sufficiently prepared e.g. for the new major
       release of the distribution shipped in the repository (as e.g. indicated by the codename).

This help section is not very helpful in determining what origin is
I suspect it is something within the repository definition, but what "" is that is missing "devuan"???

Ok I found out what is wrong

If you run apt-get update it gives the above notice
If you run apt update it gives the following:

Do you want to accept these changes and continue updating from this repository? [y/N] y

Then once you accept the changes both apt and apt-get will run like usual
What and where did this change apply to beats me!

I read the manual but it is not obvious what the change should be. Without the change it will not update.

The officially official Devuan Forum!
