Devuan 6.1 Point Release Ships With Debian 13.2 Updates

Two months after the major Devuan 6 “Excalibur” release and powered by Linux kernel 6.12 LTS, the Devuan team has rolled out the first update in the series, Devuan 6.1, for this systemd-free Linux distro.

Kept in sync with Debian 13.2, this point release introduces no major new features and focuses on correctness, stability, and installation reliability. In light of this, all images include up-to-date packages from the Excalibur repositories, ensuring that new installations start from a fully current software baseline without requiring extensive post-install updates.

Several notable fixes are included. The speech-synthesis installation issue, which previously prevented correct setup, has been resolved, restoring expected accessibility functionality. In addition, multiple bugs affecting the SLiM login manager have been fixed, addressing long-standing problems that could impact desktop logins on fresh systems.
