Great thanks Peppermint OS. That clears it up.

Hi there. Just wondering about the move to Xlibre Display server. Have read up somewhat on Xlibre, starting with a review of the Peppermint decision on https://itsfoss.com/news/peppermintos-xlibre/ and the controversy surounding it, particularly with Artix Linux and one of its developers. When I update my system ( PepDev 6 ) over time, will Xlibre replace X11 automatically in an update or can I still remain on X11 by choice, and if so, how would I go about that ? Thanks so much.

Anyone else having upgrading issues ? Thanks so much.

I keep getting error message that there is a problem with peppermint excalibur repo. I copied file as directed but install doesnt recognise types on line 1 and http://devuan.org and any derivatives not accessable either. So attemps to upgrade via the old sources.list and also sources.list.d all fail.

Hi there. Sadly, no success on upgrading from daedalus to excalibur:(. Tried several different combinations. Run out of ideas :)

Thanks Peppermint OS for details. Doesnt seem to like it when I put the file into sources.list.d. I'll try again, otherwise I see there is no rush to upgrade anyway ( June 2028 I think :) )

Hi there. Excalibur has been released now for testing purposes. I see that you are no longer using ‘sources.list’ but etc/apt/sources.list.d instead for list management. The instructions on devuan.org are for changing the sources.list file so for those trying an upgrade, they would copy the commands at devuan.org straight into etc/apt/sources.list.d instead ?. Would we just change the wording from bookworm to trixie and from daedalus to excalibur on the peppermint list and add the devuan commands...
