For all: debianutils and systemd conflict.

See a fix at the AUR page for debianutils: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/debianutils#comment-1054438

If the package is outdated, please report it with the 'Flag outdated package' above.

If there is an issue regarding packaging, please report it here:

https://github.com/ItachiSan/linux_packaging/issues/

As I do not use this package (I use a Docker container for Debian packaging) please tell me whenever a dependency is missing, so that I can move it from a make dependency to a normal dependency.

@all especially @foi & @kovax3:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#ERROR:_One_or_more_PGP_signatures_could_not_be_verified!;_what_should_I_do?

Also, the issuue is for the package debianutils, not devscripts.

@z3ntu thanks for your support. I've just now updated the package. If some of the newly added makedepends are needed also at runtime, just tell me and I will move them to the proper array.
