The Debian upgrade from wheezy to jessie will by default migrate
your init system from the SysV to systemd. Depending on your system
and setup, you may need to do some manual changes. We have detailed
known issues in Section 5.6, “Upgrading installs the new default
init system for Jessie”.
https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#systemd-upgrade-default-init-system
Jessie ships with systemd-sysv as default init system. This package
is installed automatically on upgrades.
and so on. I am of course referring to the *default* behavior here,
not to people who went out of their way to retain sysvinit.
