More info:
Instead of upgrade, I individually installed some of the packages that
were upgradable, and I added devuan-baseconf.
I now have devuan versions of dbus bash-completion and sysvinit-utils.

I didn't change samba-libs, libsmbclient and libwbclient0 because I
currently have newer versions from stretch security.
