Devuan made it clear early on that they were unwilling to allow any runtime
dependencies on any part of systemd (except udev?).  This makes it quite
incompatible with Debian's goals and I see no prospect of Debian making the
changes necessary to satisfy the Devuan developers that a separate distro is
no longer needed.
