Nope, it definitely doesn't.  I've got it running on the wife's 
laptop.  You can see the details here: (scroll down a bit to the 
"init software" line):

I may give it (Devuan) another look one of these days.  I do like 
Debian and it's offspring fairly well.  Never cared much for the

better than Linux...?
