Bug#743941: cups-daemon: why does cups-daemon depend on libsystemd-daemon0

[Attila Kinali <attila@kinali.ch>]

Package: cups-daemon
Version: 1.7.1-10
Severity: minor

Hi,

I just wanted to ask, why cups-daemon depends on libsystemd-daemon0?
I do not see why a daemon should depend on a specific init system.
And especially why it should polute my system with the libraries
of an init system i am not using.

Thanks for your time and greetings from Switzerland
