Thanks for the suggestion, Svante! I've just reread https://www.debian.org/devel/tech-ctte and it does not yet seem appropriate for the CTTE; there has not yet been any discussion with the relevant package maintainers. A bit more searching (reading the relevant changelogs) has shown that bugs https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=752939 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=754984 contain a lot more information about this issue. It seems that once cgmanager 0.27 is allowed into unstable from NEW, a new version of systemd-shim will be able to be uploaded, which will allow libpam-systemd to coexist with sysvinit once again. It's just a shame that various migrations to testing were allowed before this had been resolved :-( Anyway, I would still love to know how to write a systemd script which pauses to accept input from the keyboard before continuing.
