for what it is worth. there is an issue with minecraft download deb file. a smarter person than myself wrote this. https://marcosgabarda.com/notes/minecraft/

I have tested and this is running on Devuan 6.

This is what I've done to solve the problem!

    Unpack the original .deb package:

mkdir src/
dpkg-deb -R Minecraft.deb src/

    Open the file DEBIAN/control:

cd src/
nvim DEBIAN/control

    Replace libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 with libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0.

    Create again the .deb package:

dpkg-deb -b --root-owner-group . ~/Minecraft-fixed.deb

    And install it!

sudo apt install ~/Minecraft-fixed.deb

I spoke too soon. The script above compiled, however mullvad can not connect. it was pointed out to me on IRC Channel this git repo
https://github.com/sys-fs/mullvad-repack

this script does run but.... there are errors i am unable to get rid of in apt. I am not sure exactly how to correct. i have the output below. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know.

Thank you

Thank you! I was following another script shared with me which had errors. i edited your shell script on the 2026.1 deb file and everything works!

1st post as I just installed Devuan yesterday on my laptop, and second machine which i am typing on. This helped me greatly. Now i just wish I knew what each part of this shell script did..
