    Consolation version 0.10: https://salsa.debian.org/consolation-team/consolation/-/tags/

help2man should be a makedepend, not a runtime dependency

systemd is also not a dependency, even if it provides a .service file for it, it's not necessary for its execution

EDIT: if your intention is for udev/evdev libs, then it should be systemd-libs
