Which actually are (Build-)Dependencies, that turn into actual Dependencies
once built. But indeed, like for the vast majority of infested packages,
it's all it takes -- most upstream developers are not evil, and DTRT when
systemd headers are not available. Even if they're systemd apologists
themselves, many projects want to work on BSD and so on.

A debdiff attached, compile-tested only (I have no scanner hardware).

On the other hand, corpo lager is not a race.
