No, I did an apt-get update after the first failure, yhen again and again, and 
after changing my sources.list, yet another. 

I did, however, resist doing a full upgrade, because I saw it would be very 
large. And it's true that I don't always upgrade with every release, as there 
is not always time. 

As a general rule, I try to make sure that my present configuration is updated 
and working before I do such a major upgrade (because it looked like 
practically everything, both TDE and pure Devuan packages, would be 
replaced). I keep all my downloaded packages, sorted into folders, etc., so 
that if something goes wrong, I can always return to my previous working 
version by using dpkg and downgrading. Also, whenever the internet goes down 
(which happens even here in San Francisco sometimes), I can still get a 
working machine. 

On your suggestion, I will give it another go, see what happens. I did just 
save all my packages, so my present working system is good for my backup. 

Thanks, Slavek! 

Bill
