a) try using "aptitude install -R ...." to avoid getting "recommended"
packages along with what you really want.

b) make sure you pin systemd not to install on your machine (not needed for
Devuan, of course, but could be useful if you start mixing):

/etc/apt/preferences.d/nosystemd

Package: systemd
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -1

Package: *systemd*
Pin: release *
Pin-Priority: -1

Just take a good look at what it wants to install before saying "yes" :)
