Great, thanks.

I also noticed that apt gave a warning about not installing a systemd
service. I don't think I've changed anything to affect that but it does
look like a change from earlier. I've pushed my current V1.4.0-0devuan1
package to my fork (https://git.devuan.org/RobPearce/slim) so if someone
would like to quickly cast an eye over it, that would be great.

Thanks,

Rob
