Package: systemd Version: 215-17+deb8u I've tried to remove systemd package, as all normal users of Linux. But it won't clean after itself properly:
# apt-get remove --purge --auto-remove systemd Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: systemd* 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 5 not upgraded. After this operation, 12.2 MB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue?

Removing systemd (215-17+deb8u5) ... systemd is the active init system, please switch to another before removing systemd. dpkg: error processing package systemd (--purge): subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 Failed to stop lib-init-rw.mount: Unit lib-init-rw.mount not loaded. addgroup: The group `systemd-journal' already exists as a system group. Exiting.
