I'm working on this bug.

The issue is with dpkg now breaking on lsb (< 10.2019031300). We're
still using ls 4.1.x

Package: dpkg

Version: 1.19.5

Severity: critical

As far as I can tell, dpkg is a debian package without any devuan
modifications, but ...

When I run apt-get upgrade it says that dpkg is being held.

When I run apt-get dist-upgrade the following happens:

sudo apt-get  dist-upgrade
