Merely installing the systemd package does not make systemd the active init system on the machine. You need to do it yourself or install the systemd-sysv package for that to happen. So systemd may very well be recommended on the platforms on which it works. It's not obvious how it could be an actual mandatory dependency on some architecture but not on some other, though. The fact that GNOME works without it on some architectures points in the direction of a recommendation rather that dependency. Kind regards, Thibaut.
