Re: [DNG] Workrave is not installable in ceres

I don't use apt-get, I use aptitude for conflict resolution.

Currently I have no obsolete packages and the upgrade went well I think.

..does this make aptitude point itself to our changelog site rather
than Debian's http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs ?

..where _is_ our changelog site?

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.

HI,

An important piece of information is 'how did you install Devuan
Ceres?'. If you upgraded from one major version to the next, be aware
certain packages may need to be upgraded before the final
dist-upgrading. I am using Devuan ASCII which I upgraded from Devuan
Jessie.

The procedure:
1) Changed /etc/apt/sources.list to point to ASCII instead of Jessie
and run 'apt-get update'.
2) Upgraded kernel, dpkg, apt,  aptitude with all packages that were
pulled in the upgrade.
3) Rebooted
4) Run the final 'apt-get dist-upgrade'.  That installed a long list
of packages.
5) Rebooted again to test the newly upgraded system.

Edward
