yes it does.. daemon restarts as expected.

can't get to this point again, so i guess you can say this bug can't be 
reproduced..

tried `apt install --reinstall network-manager` and it restarts ok.
also downgraded to 1.28.0-2+devuan1, and re-upgraded with exactly the 
same commands, this time it restarts ok.

can't think of anything else to assist with this bug report, so please 
close it..
if there is a next time, i'll try to collect more info before 
reopening... (didn't know about `busctl` till now..)

thanks for the help (and your work in devuan),
d.

p.s. btw, i think you could also close bugs #388 & #507.
