I experienced the same issue on a sid box, and what worked for me was to
install (in that order):

- systemd-shim
- libpam-systemd

I think policykit was switched to logind (so consolekit is not useful
anymore). I think you need to install them in that specific order
because systemd-shim will fulfill dependencies needed for libpam-systemd
(which would otherwise pull systemd-as-init stuff, which might not be
what you want right now).
