I appreciate and understand your frustration. However, have you asked and been
refused in this particular case? I notice that Unit193 added the policykit-1
dependency[1]. He is definitely a friend of Devuan and is regularly on
#devuan-dev. I wouldn't expect him to dismiss the request out of hand.

That is exactly why I think this would be best fixed in Debian. Everybody
benefits that way. In particular, nonsystemd PID1 in Debian remains
viable. Devuan needs that to continue to be the case.

Best wishes

That is exactly the problem. Debian is not willing to fix that
dependencies. I had that with many packages right now (libvirt for
example where I rebuild my own package without that poison
dependencies). I assume that they add this dependencies fully
intentional to force systemd more widely.

Keep in mind that it is still possible to drive a debian system without
systemd. But this dependencies makes it hard and harder to do so. There
are people in Debian that I know of (namely Michael Biebl, but not the
only one) who try to do everything that is possible to drop
compatibility with other init systems.

Already done.

OK. That is fine. I understand better. However, gparted is not a forked package
and Devuan uses Debian's packages directly. If you want them to reconsider that
decision, please would report the issue directly to Debian's BTS.

No, it is part of the WTF-Repo https://www.mirbsd.org/~tg/Debs/ (It is
made by Axel Beckert)

Thats exactly the problem, it doesn't. That is a weak dependency that
should at most be recommended. That how it worked with earlier versions
too. That dependency for logind is just artefactual and not really
needed.

Yes, yes, thats how I use it most of the time. However...

Let me express something else about elogind and the library replacement
for libsystemd. On one hand I like it. But it did put the library to
/usr leaving my system unbootable. I had to recover it with grml.

I don't know what the prevent-systemd-completely package you refer to is or
where it came from. It isn't part of Devuan.

PID1 systemd is removed from Devuan already; you don't need to do anything else.

Well you were trying to install gparted and that does require logind
functionality so you do want it and would use it, if only indirectly.

If you want to avoid that you could consider using one of the command line
partitioners like parted, fdisk....

Yes policykit requires either consolekit or elogind. Devuan has no plans or
reason to remove policykit, consolekit or elogind dependencies from
packages. Although, again, you are free to choose what to install. It is
certainly possible to use Devuan Beowulf without policykit, consolekit or
elogind, but you will need to choose your packages carefully and gparted is not
currently one of them.

Best wishes

You are right in that libpam-systemd doesn't exist in Devuan. It is a banned
package.

However, Devuan has libpam-elogind which provides libpam-systemd so that
dependencies like this work.

I don't see a problem here, or have I misunderstood you?

Package: gparted
Version: 1.0.0-0.1
Severity: normal

Currently I have gparted-0.32.0-2 installed. With the upgrade today to
version 1.0.0-0.1 the package depend to policykit-1 and
libpam-systemd:i386.

This are unacceptable dependencies.

Please remove them.

Sidenote: As I use prevent-policykit and prevent-systemd-completely,
that prevented me from a broken system.
