The default init system is pulled in via the "init" meta package, which
depends on systemd-sysv [linux-any] | sysvinit-core

This means the non-Linux ports will get sysvinit as before and
sysvinit-core makes sure to pull in sysv-rc (+startpar and insserv) and
initscripts.

The "init" meta package is only omitted if you use the minbase or buildd
variant of debootstrap. So this shouldn't affect your live images.

Michael
