Correct. Anything with "systemd" in the package name can't be installed without changing the pinning. (Note: I tried with synaptic, too, and it would not install libsystemd0.)

Code: Select all
root@refracta:~# apt-get install libsystemd0
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package libsystemd0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libsystemd0' has no installation candidate
root@refracta:~# aptitude install libsystemd0
No candidate version found for libsystemd0
No candidate version found for libsystemd0
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 10 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.
                                         
root@refracta:~# aptitude search libsystemd0
p   libsystemd0                     - systemd utility library                   
root@gemini:~# apt-cache policy libsystemd0
libsystemd0:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: (none)
  Package pin: (not found)
  Version table:
     215-17+deb8u3 -1
        990 http://us.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie/main amd64 Packages

fsr . . . nextime assured me that no pinning will be necessary in the beta. Something to keep in mind when the beta finally arrives. Might need an adjustment to your setup.

Yeah, i assumed or hoped so, but wanted to be sure
(I installed pidgin, which adds a ton of dependencies, and at first glance i couldn't figure out if *systemd* was among it. That's why i asked).
After asking i found the pinning files
(back then, when i used debian, i tried to pin systemd, but it didn't work. As i gave up on debian i didn't bother to check why).

thanks, golinux. feels like the right thing to use refracta (though i didn't use anyting debian related for more than a year, i am still better with debian than with all the other distros ... :-)
Of course i like a lot of things about refracta (first of all the memories :-) , it doesn't come with non-free, it is easy to use and easy on
ressources, and so on).
I planned to install refracta for quite a while, always had a iso laying around, on hd, but was busy with other things. And as i mainly do web-browsing, the OS doesn't matter much

devuan IRC channel seems silent. Well: i can always ask here.
So i herd u liek mudkip?
