Thanks Andrei for that.
Some suggestions hopefully not too contentious :-)
1. "Some packages may depend on systemd" should probably be linked to
some mention of gnome. [My hunch is that gnome is a bigger problem than
is realised and so systemd is getting more flak than is fair
2. Remove systemd should probably be in 3 (more??) points
Remove systemd from system is vague and means different things to
different people
a. For a single run one can try out any init system with a grub line
... init=/lib/sysvinit/init|/lib/systemd/systemd
b. For permanently choosing ... you have given the command
# apt-get install sysvinit-core systemd-shim systemd-sysv-
Maybe also give the 'reversal' command: how to get replace sysvinit-ed
system with a systemd-ed system??
c. Remove libsystemd0: Hard and beyond the scope of this FAQ.
3. Dbus: I am out of depth! [And should go and read Christian's careful
explanations with corresponding care!]
