No, there is no reason to have both enabled. If you are on ASCII you should use pkgmaster.devuan.org for both /merged and /devuan. The reason is that the old amprolla will be dismissed in the long run (but will probably remain around for several years more), but ASCII has not yet been released. We are working at a new mirror infrastructure for ASCII, and the details will be announced when ASCII will be released. > For example, some packages are available in the former while rsyslog with > its dependecies - only in the latter. Can you provide specific examples, please? The main difference between auto.mirror.devuan.org and pkgmaster.devuan.org is the process that merges the Debian repos (the original amprolla for the former, the new amprolla for the latter). Apart from that, and from the key used to sign the repo files, the two repos are mostly the same. I say mostly because the original amprolla had a few specific issues in the information included in the Release and InRelease files, did not correctly merge *-security and *-updates for ascii, and does not have Contents.gz files (used by apt-file). > > So what would be the proper and the complete repository list for ascii, > including contrib and non-free packages? > The list of standard repos has not changed, and is to be found under /merged [1] (just add " contrib non-free" after "main" if you want them as well): http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged ascii main http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged ascii-security main http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged ascii-updates main If you want to use backports, you should also include: http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged ascii-backports main Devuan-specific repos (i.e., not merged with Debian's) include: http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan ascii-proposed main http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan experimental main but they are not recommended for general use, unless you want to help debugging new packages or devuan-specific stuff. HTH KatolaZ [1] As with Debian repos, you can also point your browser to: http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/dists/ and check the list of available suites and sections by yourself :) -- [ ~.,_ Enzo Nicosia aka KatolaZ - Devuan -- Freaknet Medialab ] [ "+. katolaz [at] freaknet.org --- katolaz [at] yahoo.it ] [ @) http://kalos.mine.nu --- Devuan GNU + Linux User ] [ @@) http://maths.qmul.ac.uk/~vnicosia -- GPG: 0B5F062F ] [ (@@@) Twitter: @KatolaZ - skype: katolaz -- github: KatolaZ ]
