Request: Please support Devuan #1094

Open hamensman opened 5 months ago

Installing deb-get fails because Devuan (systemd-less fork of Debian) is not supported.

$ sudo dpkg -i deb-get_0.4.0-1_all.deb

Completing the issue template would perhaps have provided information that might make it possible to extend support to Devuan :

System information

Run the following a paste the output below:

/etc/os-release

cat /etc/os-release

/etc/lsb-release

cat /etc/lsb-release

If none of those exist but a likely alternative does then please indicate that and the relevant contents for current Devuan releases.
