The symlinks in this directory are created by udev when 'disk device'
appear or disappear. I certainly don't run systemd but the symlinks for
my 'real' disk device are there. An additional for a USB stick with a
Devuan live system on it is created shortly after plugging the USB stick
into a USB socket and again removed when removing it. So "absence of
systemd" really shouldn't be the issue.

According to the thread at

https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/2955

should 2.7 works out of the box.
