This is what it says:

root@notlookedfor:~# aptitude dist-upgrade
The following packages will be upgraded:
elogind libelogind0 libpam-elogind{b}
3 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 861 kB of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libpam-elogind : Breaks: libpam-ck-connector but 0.4.6-6 is installed
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

     Remove the following packages:            
1)     libpam-elogind [234.4-1+devuan1.5 (now)]

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]
