The new package generally works for me! (And the 'who' command behaves
as expected in the circumstances.)
Might be worth checking that it is actually possible to install a
libsystemd-free system now - I haven't done that.
I should say that the fact that I raised this bug doesn't mean I
definitely think this should happen - I think Devuan Developers have
more experience than I to make this call!
