Well, I've not been asked if I wanted to switch to systemd based boot
when upgrading. I think this is a bug in init system choice and should
be reported. How to go back to sysvinit?

Installed packages:
ii  libpam-systemd:amd64                  204-10
ii  libsystemd-daemon0:amd64              204-10
ii  libsystemd-id128-0:amd64              204-10
ii  libsystemd-journal0:amd64             204-10
ii  libsystemd-login0:amd64               204-10
ii  systemd                               204-10
ii  systemd-sysv                          204-10
ii  sysvinit       2.88dsf-53
ii  initscripts    2.88dsf-53
ii  sysv-rc        2.88dsf-53

Which ones can I safely remove when going back to sysvinit?
