Re: update/upgrade error

Run

# apt update
# apt upgrade

And answer "yes" when it asks.

You should probably remove the proposed-updates repository though, unless you want to test the new bugs.

Re: update/upgrade error

While we are here, are there non-free repos and such or these repos covered everything?

Re: update/upgrade error

There are non-free and contrib[0] components in the repositories, if you need them just add them to your sources:

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main contrib non-free
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security main contrib non-free
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates main contrib non-free

[0] Containing packages which are open source but which pull in non-free software when installed.

Re: update/upgrade error

PRafael, the solution is actually https://devuan.org/os/packages.  At least it was easier and straight forward IMO.
