And in any case, the unit files that it auto-generates are (alas! from necessity) too generic to be completely useful, because they have a one size fits all approach that does not really work fully for anything. * https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/233581/5132 https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/233581/5132 * https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/394191/5132 https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/394191/5132 * https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/387314/5132 https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/387314/5132 * https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/386876/5132 https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/386876/5132

> Its name is systemd and Devuan does not permit lovers of init freedom to use it. I don't understand your tone here. The Devuan project is ~150 packages on top of Debian that aim specifically to remove the systemd dependencies. "Init freedom lovers", as you put it, can still use Debian, no?
