Refracta jessie-sysv (Debian) -> Refracta jessie-sysv (Devuan)

This was a build with openbox, last updated in March, that had *systemd*
pinned to -1 and a few packages pinned to older versions to exclude
libsystemd0. (dbus, libpulse0, bsdutils, util-linux and sane-utils)

Unpinned everything except *systemd*
Changed sources.list to Devuan and got the keyring.
update/dist-upgrade
autoremove
deborphan
aptitude purge ~c

One of the smoothest upgrades I've ever done.
