Hi -
I am running some software that expects the /var/lock/subsys directory
to exist. It seems that this (and a few other directories) are created
by /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/legacy.conf, which is owned by systemd in Debian,
and doesn't seem to exist in Devuan, or at least on my machine?

I've been converting a chimaera setup to an encrypted root file system

This almost works, except I'm running into the problem that the
cryptsetup-initramfs script terminates with a "Try again later" message

Hi -
this is not a Devuan-specific problem, since I've also had it
happen when upgrading a Debian system:
During the dist-upgrade process, fail2ban is restarted and
then tries to do something with the previous sqlite database
that's stored in /var/lib/fail2ban/fail2ban.sqlite3 by default.

Upgraded my shell server at home yesterday, and ran into a couple of
problems. None of them were specific to Devuan though, as far as I
can see - all the affected packages were inherited from Debian, and
most of the trouble was due to certain configuration details on my
system.
Anyway, maybe

Last I checked, --no-xattrs --no-acls --no-selinux still was the

Hi,
I recently used Devuan reportbug on an ascii system against a package that
comes unmodified from Debian. The bug itself is unrelated to Devuan (missing
backport of a change that fixes a broken external dependency).
The report has landed on the Devuan bug tracker, but how do things progress

Hi,
I recently updated an old (former) Debian system from Devuan
jessie to ascii.
As it turns out, its MySQL database still had a root password
in the (very) old format, which isn't accepted by MariaDB. The
upgrade routine doesn't handle that problem, leading to followup
errors.
I had to

WTF - installing from the latest Debian live CD (8.10.5-20180118),
the same thing happens... How did this ever work?
Sorry for the false alarm.

Ran into this when trying to move an old box with a Via C3 CPU
from Debian jessie (last release to support i586) to Devuan jessie:
System resets before even loading Devuan-built grub.
Don't think there's any use putting work into fixing that, just
mentioning it here before anyone else tries
