So the only
answer I get is that I must install systemd in order to run
tdenetworkmanager? I've already tried some command-line voodoo to force
installation, ignore held packages, all that good stuff.
As a last resort, compile networkmanager yourself? systemd appears to be
a strictly optional dependency (for some optional functionality, you need
one of systemd, elogind, or consolekit).

I just experimented with Slavek's PSB and PTB repos, but I get the same
results, no matter what.
If all else fails, I could probably use dpkg to force-install an older/newer
version of the package (from stretch or bullseye?), just to see if I can make
it work. It would probably work as a standalone package without systemd if I
used the stretch version (just a hunch, based on past experience); I've done
this with a few problematic items, and they often run just fine, but then
when I try to install something else or upgrade, the system wants to remove
them.
As I am still new to beowulf/buster, I am trying to play nice, follow the
rules, and avoid anything too weird. Once I know it better, I'll find a way
to make it do what I want.
Maybe Slavek will get drawn into this discussion. I feel sure that he gets the
no-systemd crowd.
