Probably yes. systemd-cron and dbus-user-session are examples of packages
that rely on the systemd service manager being pid 1.
Strictly speaking Depends: systemd-sysv is neither necessary nor
sufficient to make the systemd manager pid 1 (a system without
systemd-sysv could boot with init=/lib/systemd/systemd, or a system
with systemd-sysv could boot with init=/some-other-init), so I used
Depends: systemd, Recommends: systemd-sysv in dbus-user-session; but
perhaps I should switch that to Depends: systemd-sysv, because it would
make the intention clearer.
