new daedalus install show warnings in apt for non-free-firmware

Hi! yesterday i have installed daedalus (netinstall) because my graphics card (amd 6700xt) does not work with chimera, and everything is running perfectly, but i see this warning messages when using apt, it's expected as daedalus get ready for release? or do i need to do something for those warnings to not show?

i already tried commenting those ''non-free-firmware' from the /etc/apt/sources.list and the error stop showing, but i need that repo cause of my graphics card.

thank you all in advance!

Re: new daedalus install show warnings in apt for non-free-firmware

Hello. Check your source list. It should look like this

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus main non-free-firmware contrib non-free

As simple as it is, currently there is no "daedalus-security" yet as long as Daedalus still is in the testing stage.

Adding 'non-free-firmware' gives continuous errors in Chimaera:

Re: new daedalus install show warnings in apt for non-free-firmware

Adding 'non-free-firmware' gives continuous errors in Chimaera

Which isn't a surprise, because there is no separate non-free-firmware repo in Chimaera.

This thread is about Daedalus, not Chimaera.

Re: new daedalus install show warnings in apt for non-free-firmware

This thread is about Daedalus, not Chimaera.

I'm actually reasonably capable of reading the thread title. However, if I can pass over that & like an idiot try to implement it in Chimaera (for the second time), so can others. Hence my post to try to help others not do that.

Re: new daedalus install show warnings in apt for non-free-firmware

No part of your post conveyed itself as being advice to others, and a block of unrelated warnings and an unrelated sources.list just adds noise and the potential for confusion.

If you wanted to help such people, a simple sentence saying "p.s. non-free-firmware is new to Daedalus and shouldn't be added to Chimaera" could achieve that more directly and successfully.

(Although why anyone would arbitrarily follow a suggestion given to someone else, when not experiencing the same described issue, is beyond my comprehension.)

Lord, but these threads are full of noise. Please stop it.
