Look, Didier, this is clearly a spurious dependency. There is no reason why I should need to install systemd just so I get install a binary. This can be achieved in many ways, including splitting the package, or replacing a Depends with a Recommends somewhere. Please be so kind as to think about it rather than try to kick me out. -- Juliusz
