Dear Maintainer,
Hello,
The Plymouth Package has a hard-dependency on systemd for installation. This should not be the case, seeing as there are initscripts present for it. I have tested a simple fix where elogind is added in the source control file as an alternative to systemd's dependency, and it has worked every time I have tried it. This will allow non-systemd users to use plymouth, and is a very simple fix.
Like explained in bug #1035076, the fact that systemd is pulled by the plymouth package doesn't mean you cannot use it with an other initsystem on debian, the package that actually changes the default initsystem is "systemd-sysv", not "systemd"
Removing the dependency might break plymouth at it requires some udev rules files that are shipped by the systemd package (the rules are used to tag the framebuffer devices/heads installed on the machines).
So removing that could break some setup Kind regards, Laurent Bigonville
