Is there any hope of a non-systemd > networkmanager, if wicd becomes useless? networkmanager is not, in fact, dependent on systemd as such—elogind should be an acceptable substitute (if it isn't, it's because of the way your distro has compiled it, not some innate feature of the program). dhcpcd, with wpa_supplicant for wireless support, should be an adequate alternative for most normal networking cases, although dhcpcd doesn't have a GUI (configuring it should be something you need to do only once, though—mostly it just needs to know what network card to bind to), and wpa_supplicant's GUI wasn't great as of some years ago when I last needed to use it. Neither should care what init system they're running on, though. If you've got a desktop, you may not need any of the above—I'm not sure how Devuan operates, but Gentoo provides enough support for static wired network configurations in the netifrc base package, although you need to know things like the netmask and gateway address for your LAN to use it effectively.
