And just think of it: I was willing (almost ready) to reinstall my Devuan
because of this trivial glitch, kind of... Phew!

But that's what the developers are here for us users/hopeful testers... But we
wouldn't even have Devuan if it weren't for bright people like you devs!

Molte grazie, caro vicino di paese!
(
for the readers proficient only in lingua franca of these late centuries:
Many thanks, dear neighbor ... (the sintagma is untranslatable literally, but
'vicino di paese' means: neighbor because living in the neighboring country, so
not neighbor because, say, living in a nearby house or town)!
)

Molte grazie, caro vicino di paese!
