blackports is not runing. I can't cach the kernel-package for compile

when i make apt-get update this said me.

the problem is that kernel-package is in blackports, says he's missing the publicaciohn file.

W: The repository "http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-blackports Release" does not have a Publication file.
N: The data in a repository like this cannot be authenticated and therefore its use is potentially dangerous.
N: See the apt-secure(8) manual page for details on creating repositories and configuring users.
E: Failure to obtain [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged/dists/ascii-blackports/main/binary-amd64/Packages[/url] 404 Not Found [IP: 141.84.43.19 80]
E: Some index files could not be downloaded, were omitted, or old ones were used instead.

Try "backports" instead of "BLACKports".

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

comment out the following line so that you activate the backports repo (or add it if it's not already there):
deb     http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-backports main
https://devuan.org/os/etc/apt/sources.list

you can check backported packages here: https://pkginfo.devuan.org/

since you use backports, you will have to resolve a few dependencies. aptitude is better than apt-get or apt for this purpose. on the other hand, it is not a good idea to mix apt-get and aptitude. it may be wiser to stick to apt-get for now.
