Indeed ...

The good thing is that, from today onwards, days will be gradually getting longer

@Altoid . . . Not on planet earth. Yesterday, was the longest day of 2022. Or maybe I'm missing something . . .

[edit]Hahahaha . . . the joke is on me! What I was missing was food to wake up my brain from its stupor!  Your point once again proves that everything is relative.[/edit]

It seems to me that few people reflect on the fact that we know that light is what it is because of the existence of darkness.
Works the other way around, obviously.

In any case, it's all about the balance of the cosmos.

fsmithred's refractasnapshot and refractainstaller are in the repos.  Those scripts are used to create and install the Devuan live isos and a number of the Devuan derivatives.

For those who might be interested in the evolution of the Devuan logo and swoosh, here are the discussions mostly between hellekin and yours truly when we were creating the icon and logo in early 2015:

The idea starts here:

And finishes here:
https://www.devuan.org/gitlab-issues/de … ct.20.html

Thankfully, those germinal conversations were rescued from our old gitlab when we moved to gitea. smile

That was the grub splash for the first Devuan "Valentine" release in February 2015 just after Leonard Nimoy had died.

I just throw everything in git that I need to prepare the graphics for the themes. Some of them are not used in the actual theming.

#1132 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] devuan icon question » 2022-06-19 16:11:49

Greetings xinomilo!

The graphics stuff is in gitea. The logos are here and scattered elsewhere in that directory.

What is right with ceres? It is "unstable" after all . . .

Holy wars are not rational (though they attempt to be) . . .

#1135 Re: Devuan Derivatives » We are making progress » 2022-06-01 15:21:14

Thanks for the update.  That looks really nice!

#1136 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » Question about upgrade kernel » 2022-05-26 16:25:10

There is no Devuan 10. Devuan Releases are listed HERE.

#1137 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Install Docker. » 2022-05-23 13:38:54

Welcome to the forum . . .

Unofficial docker images for all Devuan releases including Devuan 4 Chimaera are available here. They are prepared and supported by paddy-hack and jaromil.

erdos . . . next time make sure to read the Release Notes that accompany each new release.

Welcome to the forum!

No it isn't.  You can search for available packages HERE.

#1141 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] pkgmaster.devuan.org unaccessible through IPv6 » 2022-05-13 20:44:37

I do not know about IPv6 but County codes do not work in Devuan.  Here are some useful links to help you sort things:

#1142 Re: Other Issues » (android-platform-tools) missing? » 2022-05-08 19:41:33

That request should be directed to Debian not Devuan.  smile

#1146 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Synaptic No Longer Shows Repositories » 2022-04-28 02:11:32

The Ubuntu reference indicates that it might be self-inflicted:

From: https://www.devuan.org/os/packages

Devuan package repositories are exclusive. Other repositories, including Debian, Ubuntu, Mint etc, should NOT be used directly.

#1148 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] Existential doubt » 2022-04-17 20:26:40

Also check backports to see if it might be there.

#1149 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] Existential doubt » 2022-04-17 19:37:30

It does.

The canonical answer is here:
https://www.devuan.org/os/releases

And here:
https://files.devuan.org/ (or from your favorite mirror)

This is what I don't understand

Why cant the community fork or pull soyd/dbus/avachi from opensource programs?

[cut rant]

Does the soydless community even have a plan of action to go ahead ?

There are talkers and doers. Until you become a doer, silence is the best option. Perhaps you'll find a more appreciative audience elsewhere . . .
