So the upgrade to devuan should perhaps introduce the pin?
And how soes that pinning work? Simply forbidding systemd and
some of its relatives? Or a way te detect devuan packages and
if they are present to ignore Debian's corresponding ones despite
any version numbers the Debian ones carry?

If this latter option isn't supported, is it perhaps time to fork
dpkg and/or apt?
