Thanks everyone.

I have always used "psearch portname" to search for ports/pkgs in FreeBSD. Is there any equivalent in Linux? I have been using synaptic manager for a GUI-version though.
I prefer the cmd's.

Awesome. They are looking like what I need.
"pkg delete (-f) pkgname" is one of the dangerous commands.
I also like adjusting the default config in Pkgs.

Can ai truly install apps or Pkgs via apt-build without any headache like one will do in FreeBSD with "make install clean" or portmaster?

I have tried using apt-build but it fails for some dependencies reason. I like Devuan but I can't keep up with the madness in Linux when it comes to installing (multiple) versions of the same lib/pkg on the same host, when I am not using a container - jail/chroot/etc
