Getting status for edb...
A package named "edb" does not appear to be installed; do you want to
search for a similar-looking filename in an installed package
[Y|n|q|?]? n Getting available info for edb... Please enter the version
of the package this report applies to (blank OK)

Will send report to Devuan (per lsb_release).
Querying Devuan BTS for reports on edb (source)...
Unable to connect to Devuan BTS (error: "NoNetwork()"); continue
[y|N|?]?
