You don't need ceres (unstable), unless you really want to, and you
know exactly what you are doing. Please take into account that buster
(the upstream for beowulf) will enter freeze in a couple of weeks. At
that point, unstable and testing will start diverging, maybe
considerably, and if you keep ceres in your repos you will basically
end up with ceres, not beowulf.

you don't need this repo, since it contains just the Devuan-specific
packages that are available in /merged beowulf above.

There is *no need* to use experimental with beowulf. It was needed
until a couple of weeks ago since a few packages had not been updated
yet in beowulf, but that should be fixed by now.
