My upgrade was better this time. 1) 'wget http://packages.devuan.org/devuan/pool/main/d/devuan-baseconf/devuan-baseconf_0.6.4+devuan3_all.deb' 2) 'dpkg -i devuan-baseconf_0.6.4+devuan3_all.deb' 3) enter 'jessie' in place of the default value of 'ceres' 4) remove debian sources from /etc/apt/sources.list 5) 'apt-get update' 6) 'apt-get upgrade' 7) 'apt-get update' -- just to be sure 8) 'apt-get dist-upgrade' No warnings or errors. Samba and various qemu packages get installed, even though they were not installed on my Wheezy system. Package db5.1-util has been kept back. Upgrading it wanted to remove python 2.6, so instead I removed db5.1-util and the system boots fine without it. I haven't done much testing beyond that. 'aptitude search ~i | grep systemd' shows libsystemd-login0 and libsystemd0 installed. 'apt-cache policy' for both packages shows version 215-17+deb8u2 installed from http://packages.devuan.org/merged jessie/main libsystemd-login0 is listed as deprecated in the output of 'aptitude search...' and in fact, it was installed prior to my upgrade. After a reboot libsystemd-login0 is not installed -- I may have done a 'apt-get autoremove' in the meantime. I am going to have to re-test. But overall, the upgrade was successful. -Rob _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
