  • I had a very good ride with Void for 3 years, a polished distro which taught me to play with init.

    I used Antix after that, but AntiX can really get behind on package and kernel version, so I stumbled back on Devuan, and voilà ! With backport, Devuan is really like Debian without the hassle of never knowing if your system us really shut down when you close your laptop (systemd ! 🫵)

    Pip work outside venv, you need to add the -break-system-dependencies command option to pip though. However for this kind of utilities I did not encountered issues even when doing it like a savage (pdf2image was the latest one I installed like this. On Devuan (Debian 13/Trixie eqv). Note though: you really first need to check available libraries through apt/system installer first, because these have been packaged for a reason. Only use pip install -break-system-dependencies when all options have been spent.
