I started out using Devuan Jessie, and onionshare wasn't available to me then 
either. In Debian currently It's listed in Jessie, Wheezy, and SId.

I know people hate bug reports without fine-grained detail, but I've stated 
explicitly that I only have vague information.

I understand it's frustrating, and I'm not trying to get people to run around 
in a panic. I only wanted to let people know that I also had an impression that 
something might be weird. It's totally ok not to leap into action. Just try and 
make a note of my impression.

I mean it could have nothing to do with a security breach - it may just be an 
indicator that some of the workflow is too convoluted/not self apparent enough 
that some users are getting tangled up.

If anything has indeed been happening, my best guess would be that something is 
weird about how the onion service is configured/what it points to. Does 
Devuan's onion service pull from Debian's onion service? Or does Devuan's onion 
service pull from Debian's clearnet repository? What kind of translation does 
packagemanager do when it pulls from Debian?

It's helpful though to be reminded that ascii won't be pushing large numbers of 
updates anytime soon, thanks.
