still same result:

wget -q http://us.mirror.devuan.org/merged/dists/ascii/Release -O - | grep -E '^(Suite|Codename|Architectures):'
Suite: testing
Codename: ascii
Architectures: alpha amd64 arm64 armel armhf hppa i386 ia64 mips mipsel powerpc ppc64el s390x sparc


I think we nailed it, lets wait for Katolaz to assess a solution, as
he is running the mirror operations and has a clear picture of the
situation.

*.mirror.devuan.org still points to packages.devuan.org - the old
repository - because the old installer has an old keyring...

I suspect the best solution here is to release a new Devuan 8.1
"Jessie", we discussed it sometimes in the past evaluating the impact
of the keyring update.
