Yes, Devuan is a very good project. Long live Devuan!
Hello.
Open a terminal and type the command:
sudo apt update
Post terminal output here.
About the way to clean the installation from unnnecessary file to free space, do you have any hints?
You can check this https://wiki.debian.org/ReduceDebian#Re … _footprint
The biggest projects, including the Linux kernel, are now bankrolled, developed and staffed by corporations such as Microsoft, Alphabet, IBM/Red Hat, Meta and Amazon, to name but a few. Hence the arrogance - i.e. if you're not a corporation, or someone in the pay of one, your views simply don't matter - so you run along and develop your own OS.
Or just stop using Linux and use FreeBSD.
Hello.
You need seat and session management daemon.
Just install elogind.
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends elogind
Hello.
If a person wants to remain anonymous on the Internet (as far as it is possible on the Internet), is it not better to use Tor Browser? As far as I know this browser deletes the browsing data automatically after closing it.
Hello.
The latest version of emacs in Devuan Daedalus is 28.2. If you want emacs 29.4 (this version is found in daedalus-backports), you have to manually add the backports package repository.
Backports provides newer versions of packages already in the testing suite but linked to stable dependencies. This is useful if you prefer using newer software versions over well-tested stable versions. It is advised to disable backports and only enable to install specific packages.
In short, just add to your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus-backports main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus-backports main
then
apt update
apt install -t daedalus-backports emacs
Good luck.

Yes, I agree, but since my computers use exclusively Nvidia products, NetBSD falls behind because Nvidia support is tragic...
like I would ever use a system that equates "The devil" with "being free"
Like hell... pun wasn't originally intended, but its still appropriate.
First of all, it’s not a devil, but a daemon….The “demon” actually refers to something called a daemon, which is a computer program that runs waiting for something to happen (such as a connection from the internet for a web page). The trident refers to the “forking” of processes in the computer. There is nothing demonic or evil in any of this. Although, bearing in mind that the world is ruled by signs and symbols, there is some truth in your words...
FreeBSD has a lot of trash in it anyways from linux world.
I would like to know more about it if possible.
To be honest, I don't really like the direction Linux is taking. Strange, politically motivated decisions make me think that it is not clear what else to expect from this person.
Therefore, after thinking about everything, I decided to migrate to FreeBSD without haste. I have already done this by transferring several of my computers. Two left. I'll do some more testing and I think my migration will be complete next month.
Goodbye Linux and welcome to FreeBSD!
There was no problem at all
Thank you for the info.
I will keep on testing for a week .
Hello.
TDE R14.1.3 has been released in 2024.10.27. Did you upgraded your install? If so, how did it go?
Mr. Torvalds was forced to do it.
Yes, I agree. Well said. I just think it's bad when open source programs become political tools...
I don't see any politically charged diatribe, just facts. And I'm about as unbiased as they come.
Can't see or just don't want to see?
Hello.
Maybe it is related to packages, called gvfs-backends and thunar-volman because in default xfce4 installation these packages do not exist, i.e. packages are not installed.
Look again:
Yes, you are right. Somehow I missed it. Thank you.
That said and unless you really need something as complex as exim4 running in your box, you may want to consider using a simpler, much lighter and less complicated MTA such as Dragonfly.
Hello.
This package is not available in the official Devuan package repository...and compiling it is not a good idea.
rolfie
Thank you for the answer.
There is nothing new in that. Satanists push what is good for them.
I have moved back from openrc
Hello.
I would like to ask, what is the reason for this? Why did you come back to sysvinit territory?
Hello.
I agree with everyone who has said in previous posts.
Sysvinit is a great example of unix philosophy. And if a person is not satisfied with this, he always has the option of using the malware-systemd.
Hello.
Please check Devuan 5 release notes
Here is an excerpt that I think will be important to you:
xserver-xorg-core now uses libseat1 to control rootless startx and access to
input and video devices. This has several advantages, the most significant being
that it removes the dbus dependency from xserver-xorg-core.libseat1 can use either seatd or elogind as a
backend. If you need to override the default choice (autodiscovery), use the
LIBSEAT_BACKEND environment variable.If you are using seatd as the backend, ensure the user is a member of the video group.
This is only relevant to running startx as a user, xorg run as root by a display
manager is unaffected.
The attack starts with a rogue computer spoofing a fake network printer. The attacked host is running a CUPS server and allows the fake network printer to execute arbitrary code on the server when trying printing with the fake printer.
So, the risk is higher for publicly opened networks with cups servers running. Private networks (i.e. behind a NAT) are at risk if authorized users (or intruders) set up a rogue computer for the attack inside the network.
Hello. Check this:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tra … ckage/cups
It is fixed in sid, but not fixed in testing and stable.
Thank you for sharing this.
You safely can bet on [Horror Sapiens]'s greed, so shit definitely always will happen.
I agree.
