Have you actually looked into what depends on systemd?

PAM is enough for me, considering everything that uses PAM. They could
have made their PAM plug compatible with the old PAM, but nooooooo.

I find these statements confusing, and crave enlightenment. When I look up libpam-systemd on packages.d.o, I see the following sentence:

"This package contains the PAM module which registers user sessions in the systemd control group hierarchy."

and the following dependencies:

	dep: libpam-runtime (>= 1.0.1-6)
	    Runtime support for the PAM library

	dep: libpam0g (>= 0.99.7.1)
	    Pluggable Authentication Modules library

Now, I may be being dim here, but it looks to me like that means that libpam-systemd is, in fact, plug-compatible with PAM.
