This check would probably have avoided #810785 where ifupdown 0.8.6
entered testing with a Breaks against the version of systemd which
is in testing.

Thus it would be nice to implement this, even with a hardcoded list
for a start, it's better than nothing.

Having debootstrap broken is a big issue for anyone working with testing.
