This has been discussed before on this list. My proposal was to replace
libsystemd0 with a devuan specific version (see Re: [DNG] Provides:
libsystemd0 (was Re: systemd and ssh-server)) with a modular api system.
Which also could be extended to a version that uses the systemd unit file.

But it is not simple and i do not have the programmer skills to build it
my self.
