Hi Nik,
Devuan Ascii is the equivalent of Debian Stretch. Currently, TDE official packages for Debian Stretch are not yet available. For now, the only option is to use Preliminary Stable Builds repository. And the same repository can also be used for Devuan - packages for Debian can be used on Devuan without modification. See:
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/DevuanInstall https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Preliminary_Stable_Builds
There is one new information: Now you can use the mirror of Preliminary Stable Builds repository located on the official TDE server! Instead of http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb you can now use http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb
Is this information sufficient for this moment?
Cheers
