Dear all,
I have pulled eudev from experimental yesterday and I couldn't notice any
issue on my ASCII powered laptop.
I have one question, though.
I am having some packages held back:
devscripts
procps
# apt-cache policy devscripts procps
devscripts:
Installed: 2.17.5
Candidate: 2.17.6+deb9u1
Version table:
2.17.6+deb9u1 500
500 http://packages.devuan.org/merged ascii/main amd64 Packages
*** 2.17.5 100
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
procps:
Installed: 2:3.3.10-4+devuan1.0
Candidate: 2:3.3.12-3+devuan2
Version table:
2:3.3.12-3+devuan2 500
500 http://packages.devuan.org/merged ascii/main amd64 Packages
*** 2:3.3.10-4+devuan1.0 100
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Why? is it safe to upgrade them?
Thanks.
Antonio
