Re: brasero requires systemd-sysv

[John Hasler <jhasler@newsguy.com>]

thumper/~ 19 apt-cache show libpam-systemd
Package: libpam-systemd
Source: systemd
Version: 208-8
Installed-Size: 114
Maintainer: Debian systemd Maintainers <pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libcap2 (>= 1:2.10), libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.0.2), libpam0g (>= 0.99.7.1), systemd (= 208-8), libpam-runtime (>= 1.0.1-6), dbus, systemd-sysv | systemd-shim (>= 6-4)
Pre-Depends: multiarch-support
Description-en: system and service manager - PAM module
 systemd is a replacement for sysvinit.  It is dependency-based and
 able to read the LSB init script headers in addition to parsing rcN.d
 links as hints.

Note the "|" between systemd-sysv and systemd-shim.  That means OR.

thumper/~ 19 apt-cache show systemd-shim
Package: systemd-shim
Version: 7-1
Installed-Size: 41
Maintainer: Steve Langasek <vorlon@debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.37.3), cgmanager
Suggests: pm-utils
Description-en: shim for systemd
 This package emulates the systemd function that are required to run
 the systemd helpers without using the init service


This shim was created to allow the installation of packages that use
bits of Systemd without requiring the use of Systemd as init.  It's a
consequence of the lack of backward compatibility in Systemd.


Thus Brasero does not require that Systemd be init.
