As an exercise, try doing a minimal install via debootstrap, which is
arguably the easiest way to tailor an install. I've thus far not managed to
get an install through without elogind creeping in, even if I explicitly
mark it as something to ignore. The Devuan live media I use for installs
runs elogind. It sort of reminds me of the Agent Smith virus speech from
The Matrix.

Unix libraries bundle related functionality together so that you can link
just that which you need. Can you explain how libsystemd0 fits into this
model? I'm unclear on what set of related functions it provides.
