If this is true, and you are probably not the only one affected, I wonder if maybe Devuan should reconsider merging the dmo repos. For those who want them it's trivial to add to sources.list, much easier then to apt-pin them out of the way if one does not want to use them. Freedom of choice, etc. And in the unlikely case that some multimedia package from dmo gets the systemdisease, there are several possible ways to tackle that, without unconditionally merging the whole dmo repository. Thanks for the heads-up! Best regards Urban _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
