In the "teach a man to fish" department, set up your apt sources.list to
track the Devuan releases you are willing to install from, e.g. jessie
and ascii, and then something like

  sudo apt-get update
  for release in jessie ascii; do
    apt-get depends network-manager/$release | grep systemd
  done


Much more authorative and up-to-date than IRC logs.

Hope this helps,
