| nyrx | How in-sync is Devuan with upstream Debian packaging? I'm concerned about a lack of updates and want a better understanding of how updates reach Devuan. For example, are packages that don't depend on systemd automatically "merged" in? | 22:01 |
| n4dir | nyrx: not that much in it, but i think what you search for is "Amprolla", and the link there gives a bit of an explanation: https://www.devuan.org/os/development | 22:04 |
| n4dir | the link meaning: you click on "Amprolla", and get to the explanation at the forum | 22:04 |
| n4dir | i hope this helps until someone can give you more specific details | 22:05 |
| gnarface | nyrx: i can give you a quick run-down: most the packages aren't even forked, so they're available immediately and served to the package manager direct from debian servers, transparently by http redirect (by amprolla) | 22:06 |
| gnarface | for the forked packages, there's typically only a couple hours delay limited only by the amount of automated build hardware devuan owns | 22:07 |
| gnarface | if you want more authoritative answers, talk to fsmithred | 22:07 |

| nyrx | Thanks all for the quick info. | 22:20 |
| gnarface | we know there's a lot of FUD floating around out there | 22:20 |
| gnarface | thanks for being one of the few who's smart enough to ask for yourself | 22:21 |
