The 'percent+' function URL-encodes its argument and replaces spaces
with plus signs. But it doesn't encode plus signs in its argument;
e.g.,
gpg-connect-agent --subst '/echo ${percent+ foo+ bar}' /bye
prints
foo++bar
which would decode to foo bar

After a failed switch to systemd today (Debian bug #751585), I tried to

which of course prevented the system from booting.
/sbin was available in the emergency

/sbin was available in the emergency shell and contained some files,

Then you can easily boot with systemd by specifying the kernel command

This means, if they fail to show up during boot systemd will drop you in

You can't remove the systemd package while systemd is still the active init.
How did you force the removal?
