If it is so, why there is so much hype about it?
Hype about what? libsystemd0? The only "hype" about libsystemd0 was
from LKCL who came up with a strange plan to remove it by replacing
libsystemd0 by a library that would dynamically load libsystemd0,
probably called lib-not-quite-libsystemd0.
I previously thought that Devuan aim was to remove
*any* of systemd components.
Funny, I thought Devuan was about choice.
As far as I see libsystemd0 is only a shared library.
Why should it provide features that I don't use?
It's like buying a pick-up lorry to drive it in an urban area.
libsystemd0 is a trailer hitch -- it's up to you if you want to hook up
the trailer.
Then why pushing it everywhere where it is unnecessary?
Let then people decide whether to use it or not.
If libsystemd0 is not present people don't get a free choice -- they
can't use some systemd features.
The same thing applies to libpulse and libselinux.
Just like libsystemd0 they do nothing if pulseaudio or selinux are not
installed.
May gods bless this packaging system.
