Hi Edward,

By using apt instead of apt-get you get the question if you want to
accept the change. Answering yes will make apt or apt-get update work again.

Try "apt update" instead of "apt-get update".

[DNG] 'apt-get update' fails on Devuan Boewulf.

2020-06-15 Thread Edward Bartolo via Dng
Hi,

Lately, when I attempt to update Devuan Boewulf, apt-get fails
complaining that I should explicitly accept the repositories. Reading
'man apt-secure' talks about changes in Debian's security which has
the aim to reinforce package security further. While this is good
news, it is proving also to be a headache.

What should I do to allow Devuan upgrade itself while at the same time
using the new more stringent security model?

Finally, a word of thanks to BOTH Debian and Devuan for working hard
to improve security.

Thanks for taking your time to read and answer this question.
