Do our dependencies now prevent having both systemd and sysvinit-core
installed at once? When I was doing testing with early versions
of our elogind packaging I started with a systemd setup and
switched it over with:
apt install sysvinit-core
reboot (which will bring the system back with sysvinit as pid 1)
apt remove systemd
(then install elogind)
