Hello dear systemd packages maintainers,
I think this bug report is worth a look as this basically resumes to
problems on system without packages of priority 'standard'. The
problems seems to be systemd-related bu I lack the experience to debug
this further

Comments/Problems:
The installation itself works flawlessly, but when installing a
minimal system by deselecting standard system utilities in
tasksel, on booting the installed system the systemd error
message [FAILED] Failed to start Login Service gets shown
several times.
systemctl status -l systemd-logind.service results in:
-8--8--8--8--8--8-

When standard system utilities is selected in tasksel, the
problem does not occur. Deselecting standard system utilities
did not have any negatve effect on the boot process when d-i
still installed SysV-init as the default init system, so this is
a regression.
Following is a full boot log of an installation with standard
system utilities deselected in tasksel:
