Hello Everybody,

I just did dist-upgrade on my KVM VPS and I just realised that libsystemd0
got pulled from beowulf repository:





Now I cannot purge that libsystemd0 because a lot of things depend on
that.



Please outline precisely what the problem with libsystemd0 is.

As far as I understand it, libsystemd0 is a stub library, providing function
*names* required by various other libraries which are expecting to see
systemd-like things available, but its primary purpose is to say "this
function is not available", so everything is "happy", despite there being no
systemd code at all in the machine.



      I know that as I had several of this kind of discussions on this
      mailing list since day one Devuan exists. 
It is a matter of
        principle to me, 
but what can I do as ordinary user or
      non-coder. 
So
        I don't want to repeat that kind of discussions as I just need
        to accept that.


But this time I just don't
      understand why that stupid library got pull into my KVM VPS even
      though blocked it. In all my desktop installs 
like on the PC that I am
        using now, 
it does not exist.
