Putting this back on list.
I still think you are doing it wrong, after changing your
sources.list(s) you should, at least
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
Ah. you have an extra step. The following is from the website doc.
Update the package lists from the Beowulf repository.
|root@devuan:~# apt-get update|
Devuan Jessie users should now upgrade the Devuan repository keyring,
and update the package lists again so packages can be authenticated.
|root@devuan:~# apt-get install devuan-keyring|
|root@devuan:~# apt-get update|
If xscreensaver is running you should kill it now as it needs to be
stopped before it can be upgraded.
|root@devuan:~# killall xscreensaver|
Now you can perform the upgrade.
|root@devuan:~# apt-get dist-upgrade|
I've seen your original problem frequently, mysql and mariadb both are
turned off during upgrades, and then apt-get goes on to install other
packages, which might require a database to be running and have no
control over this. A workaround is, whenever you have mysql (or
mariadb) present, update it first and alone, like this:
apt-get update
apt-get install default-mysql-server # this command depends on your
version, just reinstall mysql's server first.
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
This way mysql gets updated first, and will be running for the rest of
your system.
