Yeah the old pinning won't work on ceres, but the new pinning does as far as

can't test my instructions atm.

I just installed a Devuan system from scratch in "expert mode" from

It went fine so far and finally I own this beautiful green slim login

Arch is a virulently pro-systemd, anti-choice distro, unlike its
descendant, Manjaro. If Arch is really home-growing a systemd-free
version of Arch, this would be, in the words of Joe Biden, a BIG F'ing
DEAL!
Arch is often trotted out to combat accusations that systemd is a
redhatism, and that sys
