#1 Re: Documentation » HOW TO: Install XLibre on Devuan » 2026-01-18 12:45:46

There were complaints by the X.org people about Enricos (the developer
behind Xlibre) patches, they claimed it broke stuff.  Are these complaints
for real, is there something obviously not working with Xlibre, or is it just
politics, as in "used bad word" or "makes it difficiult to force
$unwanted_new_shiny_technology onto the user"?

This is what I expected, too, but synaptic lists several packages
called android-sdk-* and I am a little short on diskspace, so
I try to avoid installing all of them.

I haven't done android stuff in maybe five years; now I found
that compat isn't even needed, possibly it was introduced in
a newer version.

Now I realize, that the question was wrong:

Appcompat is not installed, and I don't know in which debian
package it hides, or if there exists another way to install it
without using the eclipse / gradle ecosystem.

Hi,

I am not quite shure, if this is the right forum to ask.

I need to put together a quick android-app that depends on
appcompat.  I did install android sdk with synaptics, and now
I don't find out where to find appcompat.  Any hints where to
look?

Thanks a lot

Hi all,

I got this old PC sitting in the corner, still running Devuan ASCII.  Now I lost
some packages due to a hd-crash, and surprisingly  support did run out
some time ago.

Is there some kind of archive of old packages?

greettings, brgs
