Thanks for the hint Lorenzo.

I found the docs: https://www.devuan.org/os/packages

The slightly problematic issue is finding the same version in both repos.

For example:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libaprutil1t64-dbgsym : Depends: libaprutil1t64 (= 1.6.3-3+b1) but
1.6.3-3+deb13u1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
E: The following information from --solver 3.0 may provide additional
context:
   Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting decisions:
   1. libaprutil1t64:amd64=1.6.3-3+b1 is not selected for install
   2. libaprutil1t64:amd64=1.6.3-3+b1 is selected for install because:
      1. libaprutil1t64-dbgsym:amd64=1.6.3-3+b1 is selected for install
      2. libaprutil1t64-dbgsym:amd64 Depends libaprutil1t64 (= 1.6.3-3+b1)

Should I really just be building from source? I liked using the dev
packages, as then I can be semi-confident that my program will build and
run flawlessly on the same devuan version, but maybe it's a bad idea.

For now I downgrade the lib pkg to match what debian repo has available.

Any ideas, advice?

Cheers,

Simon
