ASCII repositories

There are now a very limited amount of packages available from the repoes, haven't checked which ones are actually available though.

Are there something wrong with the ASCII repositories?
Do we have to change the URLs after ASCII was moved to old-stable?

Thanks,
Olav

Re: ASCII repositories

Only if you have specified stable in your sources.list. I can confirm that there is little movement on ASCII.

Here is some lecture: https://devuan.org/os/packages

Re: ASCII repositories

The thing is that packages which used to be available no longer are.

But, thanks for your reply:)

Re: ASCII repositories

Which packages? What do you miss? Can you be specific please? Maybe I misunderstood your question? I was aiming at updates ...

My main workstation still is on ASCII, and I do not miss anything...

Re: ASCII repositories

I'm sorry, my silly mistake; all is well and I'm too ashamed to tell what went wrong.

Thanks,

No need to be embarressed, everybody makes mistakes :-)

If you share the problem and your solution here it may be useful if others also make the same mistake.
