Greetings For a number of reasons I would prefer to migrate (this machine is a server test bed (where I experiment)).
Following the 'destrucitons' on: https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/en/buster-to-beowulf I'm totally stuck at: If you want to use the wicd network manager this needs to be installed now or the upgrade will fail. root@debian:~# apt-get install wicd-gtk I have used dpkg and apt to remove network-manager yet every time I ask apt to install 'wicd-gtk' I'm getting the following (have removed/purged the installed files a few times too and dried a reboot to see if I could clear things this way but - - - ): $ dpkg -l | grep network* (pertinent selection) ii traceroute 1:2.1.0-2 amd64 Traces the route taken by packets over an IPv4/IPv6 network iF wicd-daemon 1.7.4+tb2-6+devuan1.1 all wired and wireless network manager - daemon iU wicd-gtk 1.7.4+tb2-6+devuan1.1 all wired and wireless network manager - GTK+ client # dpkg --configure -a Setting up wicd-daemon (1.7.4+tb2-6+devuan1.1) ...

Is there anyone who might be able to show me how to beat this issue into submission? Please advise soonest (grin - - - I am getting frustrated with this boondoggle!)
