Dear D1rs,
if you are wondering how you can help during the ASCII sprint of this
coming weekend (15-16-17 Dec. 2017), here is tentative list of things
where user feedback is needed. Before we proceed with the list, note
the following important points:
* we are talking about Devuan ASCII;
* please be sure that you are using pkgmaster.devuan.org in your
sources.list;
* please ensure that you have apt-get update-d recently (meaning, in
the last few hours);
* please ensure that you are not mixing Devuan repos with non-Devuan
ones (including Debian's, Ubuntu's or third-parties');
* please ensure that you don't have any relevant pin in
/etc/apt/preferences.d
* please do not report any dependency on libsystemd0: we know
already. We are working at it. we might be able to remove most of
those. But it is not a fundamental target for ASCII.
There we go with the list:
- list of bugs relevant to ASCII:
http://bugs.devuan.org//cgi/pkgreport.cgi?which=tag&data=ascii
could any of those be closed? Do you have further
info/fixes/patches? Could you confirm the bug in the few cases where
it was marked as irreproducible?
- eudev (is it working for you? any glitch? any regression from udev?)
- upgrade paths, and in particular:
Devuan Jessie -> Devuan ASCII
Debian Stretch -> Devuan ASCII
are there any glitches there? It is FUNDAMENTAL to test those with
pkgmaster.devuan.org in your sources.list (this will pull eudev)
- XFCE (is it working for you? any missing piece?)
- MATE/Cinnamon (is it working for you? what is the status?)
- KDE (this is mostly terra incognita. How is it doing in ASCII?)
- other systemd-encumbered packages (please report only deps on
systemd components, not on libsystemd0)
- other existing problems/bugs/glitches/inconsistencies
During the sprint, you might also be asked to try/test/check theming
material, new packages, provisional installation material, and the
like. Thanks in advance for any help you will be able to provide.
Come on: let's put ASCII out.
The Dev1Devs
@ KDE: KDE3 continued as TDE aka trinitydesktop.org
https://trinitydesktop.org/ works perfect on jessie. It would be very
nice, if it could be included as an alternative DE for all those who
like KDE3 but dislike all newer KDE incarnations and the GTK3-stuff.

We talked about that quite some time ago here and also on the trinity
list. Yes, it would be nice to have trinity available. And it could be
included if someone steps up to package and maintain it. Still waiting
for that someone. Is it even compatible with ascii/stretch? The door
for inclusion in jessie is closed.
