I installed Devuan about 4 months ago in our test lab, which now
houses about 180 flavors of Unix-(like) systems. The starting point
was the devuan_jessie_1.0.0_amd64_DVD.iso file.
After reading DNG list traffic for several weeks, and seeing frequent
mention of the ascii release, I followed recipes that I found in Web
searches after applying these changes:
% grep -v '^#' /etc/apt/sources.list | egrep -v '^ *$|deb-src'
deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged ascii main
deb http://us.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-security main non-free
deb http://us.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ ascii-updates main non-free
deb http://packages.devuan.org/merged ascii main non-free
I run updates frequently, and the last changes in /bin and /usr/bin
are all less than 8 days old. The puzzling thing is this:
% cat /etc/devuan_version
jessie
Do other folks who have upgraded to ascii still see that file
reporting jessie? If not, then can someone suggest what I've done
wrong in my upgrades?
I find this about the original of the version file:
% dpkg-query -S /etc/devuan_version
base-files: /etc/devuan_version
% dpkg-query -S base-files
base-files: /usr/share/doc/base-files/changelog.gz
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/staff-group-for-usr-local
base-files: /usr/share/doc/base-files/copyright
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/profile
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/info.dir
base-files: /usr/share/doc/base-files/FAQ
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/dot.profile
base-files: /usr/share/lintian/overrides/base-files
base-files: /usr/share/base-files
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/dot.bashrc
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/motd
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/profile.md5sums
base-files: /usr/share/base-files/dot.profile.md5sums
base-files: /usr/share/doc/base-files/README.FHS
base-files: /usr/share/doc/base-files/README
base-files: /usr/share/doc/base-files
A check of my filesystem shows that some of those files were changed
just a week ago.
