Source: systemd
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

I've chosen to keep away from systemd and systemd related packages,
but I haven't been paying enough attention and ended up with these
packages installed on my system:

        $ dpkg --get-selections | egrep systemd
        libsystemd-daemon0:amd64                        install
        libsystemd-id128-0:amd64                        install
        libsystemd-id128-0:i386                         install
        libsystemd-journal0:amd64                       install
        libsystemd-journal0:i386                        install
        libsystemd-login0:amd64                         install

All the above packages are 'Priority: optional'.

I also have package policykit-1 on hold, as it's attempting to install
more systemd related packages:

        $ apt-get install policykit-1
        Reading package lists... Done
        Building dependency tree
        Reading state information... Done
        The following extra packages will be installed:
          libpam-systemd systemd systemd-sysv
        Suggested packages:
          systemd-ui
        The following packages will be REMOVED:
          sysvinit-core
        The following NEW packages will be installed:
          libpam-systemd systemd systemd-sysv
        The following held packages will be changed:
          policykit-1
        The following packages will be upgraded:
          policykit-1
        1 upgraded, 3 newly installed, 1 to remove and 6 not upgraded.

policykit-1 is also 'Priority: optional'.

I already removed quite a few gnome-related packages from my system as
they have dependencies to systemd related packages.  I don't use gnome
and I can live without.  Still...

Attempting to purge the systemd related packages leeds to this:

        # apt-get --purge remove libsystemd-daemon0:amd64 
libsystemd-id128-0:amd64 libsystemd-journal0:amd64 libsystemd-login0:amd64
        The following information may help to resolve the situation:

        The following packages have unmet dependencies:
         policykit-1 : Depends: libpolkit-agent-1-0 (>= 0.105) but it is not 
going to be installed
                       Depends: libpolkit-backend-1-0 (>= 0.99) but it is not 
going to be installed
                       Depends: libpolkit-gobject-1-0 (>= 0.101) but it is not 
going to be installed
                       Depends: consolekit but it is not going to be installed
                       Depends: dbus
        E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be 
caused by held packages.

Alright...  Adding policykit-1 to the list:

        # apt-get --purge remove libsystemd-daemon0:amd64 
libsystemd-id128-0:amd64 libsystemd-journal0:amd64 libsystemd-login0:amd64 
policykit-1

        0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 316 to remove and 6 not upgraded.

Now, this is serious breakage, IMO.
