Post Your Sources List

brocashelm · 2020-09-06 08:54:58

I saw this on a different forum, so I figured this thread would be interesting to see what we're all using to pull in packages and updates from.

When I installed Beowulf, I had the security, backports, and updates branches thrown in for good measure. Now that I'm predominantly on Ceres, those are no longer necessary. I also like to keep all my sources on the same file, rather than individual files per repository. It just makes things a lot simpler.

I added WineHQ's repository to get the most out of my Wine-dependent programs, and Pale Moon is the least sucky graphical browser in my opinion.

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres main contrib non-free
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ bullseye main
deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/stevenpusser/Debian_Unstable/ /

And, here's my permanent Systemd blacklist (just in case I decide to add MX GNU/Linux repositories for the GUI tools):

Package: systemd
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -1

Package: *systemd*
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -1

Package: systemd:amd64
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -1

Package: systemd:i386
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -1

With apologies for the off-topic post:

Note that MX apply an epoch to their GRUB packages so if you add their repositories then those will be "upgraded" to the MX versions even in a ceres system.

See http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=146083 for a way to pin MX packages so that they are treated in the same way as backports, that will prevent any inadvertent changes.

Thanks for the heads-up. I remember reading the thread before, but forgot about the pinning specifics for MX GNU/Linux. Nevertheless, the Systemd pinning is crucial when including repositories such as those in.

My sources.list is pretty plain vanilla:

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main non-free contrib
#deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main non-free contrib

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

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

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

[Edit: just remembered that this is in sources.list.d, for Pale Moon:]

deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/stevenpusser/Debian_10 /

My Beowulf sources list...

seems to be working ok. Thank you very much.

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

I started with NETINST stable then passed to testing on the specified dates. I have a single line because of testing repo.

ComputerBob · 2020-09-07 21:58:14

Like I'm guessing many (most?) other users, I use the standard repos, as suggested by the Devuan site.

zapper · 2020-09-08 06:17:26

My thinkpad x230 is on chimaera devuan due to some issues I had with changing from openrc to runit and also like the poster, I also have the same wine repo,

But I also have jxself.org's linux-libre repo. I will post the exacts later, I am not using that laptop right now

This is being typed from my x200 thinkpad. The one with Hyperbola.

These are my sources

However I think the testing version must not have a security repo, because chimaera-security always gives errors.

aka 404 not found.

Pretty standard stable stuff really.

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

I did try out mx linux repos to pull in xfce4 -v 4.14 to see if it could be done but that was just an experiment and not something i would keep long term.

No, there is no security repository for testing. See https://www.debian.org/security/faq#testing

Nor is there a testing-updates repository. You might want to also read https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debi … .html#s3.1

The links are from the Debian FAQs but the information also applies to Devuan.

Ah, okay, I wonder why i dont get errors from the testing-updates repo then... weird... very "weird"]

Although maybe I do and haven't noticed...
