Andreas,

Thanks for this.

You are quite right that this dependency would be much better avoided.

I am interested in us fixing this in ceres/chimaera.

I know you have patched version 1.8  to remove libsystemd0. Would you care to
update that for the current ceres/chimaera version 2.0.1? We can then look at
including it in devuan-packages.

Thanks

Mark
