I've managed to build debian-installer. One of the issues arising was the too obsolete version of libdebian-installer4-udeb in the dependencies of main-menu.udeb (>= 0.101), preventing the instalation of some packages. Now, i'm uploading a nonofficial liveCD of Devuan in amd64, including Netman and Xfce.

Download zone:

http://gnuinos.org/devuan/

Cheers,

Aitor.

Hi Frits,

- cdebootstrap deb package depends on libdebian-installer4 (>= 0.97)

- main-menu udeb package depends on libdebian-installer4-udeb (>= 0.101)

But the version of both 'libdebian-installer-extra4' and
'libdebian-installer-extra4-udeb' in Devuan's repository is 0.99+deb8u1.
The sources of the package are right, becase debian/changelog says:

libdebian-installer (0.97) unstable; urgency=low

and debian/control:

Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, libdebian-installer4 (=
${binary:Version})
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, libdebian-installer4-udeb
(= ${binary:Version})

for each package (libdebian-installer-extra4 and
libdebian-installer-extra4-udeb, respectively). However, the versions of
them in the repository (=0.99+deb8u1) don't correspond with the sources
(=0.97).

This fact would be the origin of the issue.

Aitor.
