Dear dev1rs, We are happy to announce that 'amprolla3', the rewrite of nextime's amprolla by parazyd and Wizzup, is finally up and running and ready to be tested.
The code can be found at: https://git.devuan.org/devuan-infrastructure/amprolla3 The rewrite increases the frequency of merges (now performed every few minutes, rather than once a day), meaning that new packages, updates, and upgrades will be available almost immediately to Devuan users. We have set up a second host which will serve Devuan packages as merged by the new amprolla3. It is now available at pkgmaster.devuan.org and currently serves Devuan Jessie, Devuan Ascii, and Devuan Ceres, including all the *-security and *-updates sections. The host, pkgmaster.devuan.org, also supports https. If you want to help testing the new amprolla3, you just need to: - replace "auto.mirror.devuan.org" with "pkgmaster.devuan.org" in your /etc/apt/sources.list - # apt-get update - # apt-get install devuan-keyring Then just use it as you did with auto.mirror.devuan.org. Please report any bugs on https://bugs.devuan.org, as usual. The current auto.mirror.devuan.org host remains up and running and perfectly usable. Once the testing of amprolla3 is complete, the transition to the new system should be seamless and transparent to all users. The new amprolla3 also provides support for the currently missing Contents*.gz files (solving the apt-file bug). The feature will be made available in the coming couple of days.
