In the "teach a man to fish" department, set up your apt sources.list to
track the Devuan releases you are willing to install from, e.g. jessie
and ascii, and then something like
sudo apt-get update
for release in jessie ascii; do
apt-get depends network-manager/$release | grep systemd
done
Much more authorative and up-to-date than IRC logs.
Hope this helps,
