Devuan 5.0.1 Daedalus Images Available for VirtualBox and VMware

Devuan project announced the stable version of Devuan 5.0.1 Daedalus after two years of development. Devuan is a fork of Debian with the SysV init software used in place of Debian’s systemd package. “It is with great pleasure that the Devuan Developers hereby announce the release of Devuan Daedalus 5.0 as the project’s newest stable release. What’s new in Daedalus 5.0: Based on Debian Bookworm (version 12) with Linux kernel 6.1; Rootless startx uses libseat1; Wayland GUI without elogind. xserver-xorg-core now uses libseat1 to control rootless startx and access to input and video devices. This has several advantages, the most significant being that it removes the dbus dependency from xserver-xorg-core. libseat1 can use either seatd or elogind as a backend. If you need to override the default choice (autodiscovery), use the LIBSEAT_BACKEND environment variable. Wayland GUI without elogind: Users can now enjoy a wayland desktop without elogind by installing libpam-ck-connector, sway and seatd…” You can checkout release announcement here and release notes.
