Short list of Devuan repository URLs: ## stable (jessie) NB: I ommitted the deb-src entries here! deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged stable main contrib non-free deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged stable-updates main contrib non-free deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-security main contrib non-free ## testing (ascii) deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged testing main contrib non-free ## unstable (ceres) deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged unstable main contrib non-free deb-src http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged unstable main contrib non-free FWIW, I use all of the above simultaneously *together with some clever(?) apt-pinning* to avoid breakage of several things. That way I have basically Ascii, but can easily cherry-pick packages from stable and unstable, if I wish to. *However,* that's not for the faint of heart, probably not exactly a safe thing to do, and definitely a somewhat advanced topic, so I leave that out of this post. In case you're interested nonetheless, please just drop a note and I will post a follow-up.
