You probably get 615 packages to upgrade since ascii-upgrades was finally merged by amprolla3. amprolla3 is functionally equivalent to the traditional amprolla. So if you specify "jessie", you will get Jessie packages, not Stretch ones. If you are on Devuan "ascii", you will get Ascii packages. Those packages that have been forked by Devuan will come from Devuan, and those that have not been touched will come from Debian. As in the original amprolla. As usual, you should never mix debian and devuan repos. If you do mix them, you are on your own, and must not blame amprolla or devuan :) We have been testing amprolla3 for more than two months now, on dozens machines, and it has been working like a charm.
