After further investigation, the missing package is in Debian 9 (Stretch) Contrib: https://pkgs.org/download/nvidia-installer-cleanup I tried adding 'contrib' to the end of sources, which worked for 'non-free,' but doesn't seem to work for contrib. So... What is the corresponding Devuan repository for Debian Contrib? If there isn't one, what are the issues with installing the .deb (nvidia-installer-cleanup_20151021+4_amd64.deb) from the above link? Thanks, Michael PS: Does anyone see this?
