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

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.
Errors were encountered while processing:
 systemd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


For some reason this poor thing tries to add group systemd-journal when
being removed.
