Hi,

in March I upgraded from Devuan Ascii to Beowulf, using the
documentation provided here:

  https://beta.devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/en/upgrade-to-beowulf

Only three small problems popped up since that time:

1) During upgrade:
  dpkg: error processing archive
  /var/cache/apt/archives/uim-data_1%3a1.8.8-4+deb10u2_a ll.deb
  (--unpack):
  subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/uim-data_1%3a1.8.8-4+deb10u2_all.deb
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

  This was maybe an original Debian problem and has nothing to do with
  Devuan.  Worked around this by patching the pre-removal script in
  /var/lib/dpkg/info, followed by 'apt-get -f install'

2) After the upgrade, pulseaudio was no longer auto-starting when
  logging into XFCE.  Starting it from a terminal while logged in fixed
  the problem for the ongoing session.  Eventually after finding this
  [1] I permanently fixed the issue by uncommenting autospawn=no in
  /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf .

3) Nowadays I have some conflict between installed packages surrounding
  consolekit.  E.g. attempting to install "ktouch" will cause a conflict
  where it wants to remove consolekit and replace
  libpolkit-*-consolekit-1-0 with libpolkit-*-elgoind-1-0.  Is that an
  acceptible conflict resolution or are I going to damage something in
  my installation?

cheers,

David
