Hi Bill,
as far as I know, the Devuan sources are designed in such a way that it is
a merger of the Debian repository together with a repository containing
Devuan specific packages. See "merged" in apt source path.
Therefore, when downloading packages, unchanged packages from Debian are
redirected directly to the Debian repository. This is why you can observe
downloads from the Debian repository.
Cheers

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.
Cheers
So the apt-get update and upgrade went fine, or seemed to do, until I
tried to install some other packages, then I got an error message about
needing GLIBCXX. Turns out that is glibc++, and I don't know what
happened.
Another thing I noticed during my recent upgrade, and again during this
reinstallation: apt seems to try to connect to a Debian server, even
though I have only Devuan repositories enabled. After a few seconds, it
shows a Devuan server, and all appears to be okay again, but I am left
wondering what that was about. Again, not sure if it's related to this
issue.
This is why I resist doing upgrades sometimes. But I looked over my
folders of saved packages (which I date and sort), and I find that I
generally have done an upgrade about every month or two, so at least I
am pretty regular.
When I did a fresh reinstallation of my system, I got a message that
seemed like it might relate to that problem:
apt-listchanges
glibc (2.31-13+deb11u4) bullseye; urgency=medium
I have not pasted the whole message, as I'm sure the developers are
already familiar with it.
Well, so now I am back up and running.
Bill
