Thanks a lot Franco.

I will start to fork and push some packages which might be relevant to
Devuan. I still need to learn a lot though, about git usage and all of
these.

There seems to be a bright side from destruction on Linux KISS that
systemd made. I would not learn more about all of these if that didn't
happen. I would just be a lazy ordinary Debian user who would only
complain and swearing if things broke. :)

Cheers,
