Control: severity -1 normal

Hi!

Thanks for your quick reply! I tried to make this bug reproducible and
eventually succeeded: The crucial point was, that the package
installation must happen *before* systemd considers the system fully
booted, i.e. by installing the package inside "/etc/rc.local". This
means:

   1. This is certainly a corner case, so I have downgraded the severity
      to "normal".
   2. Depending on what our expectations on systemd are, this might be no
      bug at all.
   3. If it is a bug, it is probably not in the dbus package, but rather
      in the init-system-helpers or systemd package.

If you (or the systemd maintainers) are interested, you can reproduce
this bug with the attached script: Just run it as root and you should
eventually get a login prompt. Login as root (no password required) and
run "systemctl status dbus". The output should look like this:

        root@shepard:~# systemctl status dbus
        ● dbus.service - D-Bus System Message Bus
           Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/dbus.service; static; vendor 
preset: enabled)
           Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2017-02-12 00:17:56

        Feb 12 00:17:56 shepard systemd[1]: dbus.service: Failed with result 
'exit-code'.
        root@shepard:~# 

However, please also feel free to simply close this as NOTABUG. Thanks
again for your quick reply!

Best regards
