## Introduction
This document includes technical notes relevant to Devuan 5 Daedalus.
Devuan 5 Daedalus is based on Debian 12 Bookworm. Much of the information in

is relevant and useful. They should be consulted alongside this document.

## New in this Release
### Rootless startx uses libseat1
xserver-xorg-core now uses libseat1 to control rootless startx and access to
input and video devices. This has several advantages, the most
significant being
that it removes the dbus dependency from xserver-xorg-core.
libseat1 can use either seatd or elogind as a
backend. If you need to override the default choice (autodiscovery), use the
LIBSEAT_BACKEND environment variable.
If you are using seatd as the backend, ensure the user is a member of
the video group.
This is only relevant to running startx as a user, xorg run as root by a
display
manager is unaffected.
### Wayland GUI without elogind
Users can now enjoy a wayland desktop without elogind by installing
libpam-ck-connector, sway and seatd.
Ensure the relevant user is a member of the `video` group and run sway from
the terminal.
## Getting Devuan 5 Daedalus
Devuan 5 Daedalus is available for i386, amd64, armel, armhf, arm64 and
ppc64el
architectures.
Installer isos and live CDs for i386 and amd64 are [available for
download](http://files.devuan.org/devuan_daedalus/) at
http://files.devuan.org/devuan_daedalus/.
Mini isos and other specialist installation media for all release
architectures
are available from
http://deb.devuan.org/devuan/dists/daedalus/main/installer-{ARCH}/current/images/.
Please consider using one of the many
[mirrors](https://devuan.org/get-devuan),
listed at [https://devuan.org/get-devuan](https://devuan.org/get-devuan).
Detailed instructions on how to use each image are available in the
corresponding `README.txt` file. The `SHA256SUMS` of each set of images is
signed by the developer in charge of the build. The fingerprints of [GPG
keys of
all Devuan developers]( https://devuan.org/os/team) are listed at
[https://devuan.org/os/team](https://devuan.org/os/team).
In order to check that the images you downloaded are genuine and not
corrupted, you should:
- download the image(s)
- download the corresponding `SHA256SUMS` and `SHA256SUMS.asc` files in
the same
folder
- verify the checksums by running:
> `sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS`
(it could complain about missing files, but should show an "OK" close
to the
images you have actually downloaded)
- verify the signature running:
> `gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ./devuan-devs.gpg --verify
SHA256SUMS.asc`
(assuming that you have put the GPG keys in the keyring named
`devuan-devs.gpg`. YMMV)
The `devuan-devs.gpg` keyring is provided only for convenience. The most
correct
procedure to verify that the signatures are authentic is by downloading the
relevant public keys from a trusted keyserver, double-check that the
fingerprint
of the key matches that of the developer reported on
[https://devuan.org/os/team](https://devuan.org/os/team) and then use
that key
for verification.
### Docker images
Official Devuan Docker container images are [available from the Docker
Hub](https://hub.docker.com/u/devuan). These images are updated as
needed for all maintained releases. To get the latest image for
Daedalus execute
`docker pull devuan/devuan:daedalus`
