Hello Edward,

I am actually also quite itchy to try Devuan. But I don't think the
minimal packages for debootstrap are all available in Devuan
repositories at the moment. For instance, Devuan jessie repository that
you use, only contains the packages listed below when I checked it a few
minutes ago.

I have a plan to try to mix Debian and Devuan repositories at one point
using Multistrap (https://wiki.debian.org/Multistrap), when I am
confidence enough that Devuan repository contains necessary packages
without dependencies to any systemd components. I don't think it makes
sense to do that now, as the only option that I see at the moment is to
mix Devuan jessie and Debian wheezy. So it is better for me to just stay
on Debian wheezy.

Cheers,

Anto
