Hi Bill,
it looks like you haven't done an "apt update" in a while, because the
version 14.1.0~s244 corresponds to the version from October 28th, while
the current version is 14.1.0~s247 from November 18th.
So you can try to do "apt update" and install the packages afterwards.
No, I did an apt-get update after the first failure, yhen again and again, and
after changing my sources.list, yet another.
I did, however, resist doing a full upgrade, because I saw it would be very
large. And it's true that I don't always upgrade with every release, as there
is not always time.
As a general rule, I try to make sure that my present configuration is updated
and working before I do such a major upgrade (because it looked like
practically everything, both TDE and pure Devuan packages, would be
replaced). I keep all my downloaded packages, sorted into folders, etc., so
that if something goes wrong, I can always return to my previous working
version by using dpkg and downgrading. Also, whenever the internet goes down
(which happens even here in San Francisco sometimes), I can still get a
working machine.
On your suggestion, I will give it another go, see what happens. I did just
save all my packages, so my present working system is good for my backup.
Thanks, Slavek!
Bill
