Package: systemd
Version: 204-8
Severity: serious
Dear Maintainer,
according to upstream, systemd depends on the Linux kernel being in use.
Quote <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/README?id=v215>:
> Linux kernel >= 3.0
> Linux kernel >= 3.3 for loop device partition support features with nspawn
> Linux kernel >= 3.8 for Smack support
According to Lennart Poettering, future systemd versions are going to depend
on specific Linux kernel versions. For evidence, see this email from Lennart
<http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-May/019657.html>:
> To make this clear, we expect that systemd and kernels are updated in
> lockstep. We explicitly do not support really old kernels with really
> new systemd. So far we had the focus to support up to 2y old kernels

See also bug #770876, where udev device enumeration in Xorg does not work
with Linux kernel 3.2, but does work with Linux kernel 3.16. Introducing
a versioned dependency of systemd on a Linux kernel >=3.4 could prevent
breakage when upgrading from Wheezy, which comes with Linux kernel 3.2.
I have marked this bug serious after reading the RC issues document at
<https://release.debian.org/testing/rc_policy.txt>, according to this:
> Packages must include a "Depends:" line listing any other
> packages they require for operation, unless those packages are
> marked "Essential: yes".
I could not determine if the package linux-image is marked essential, as
it seems to be an entirely virtual package. I have no idea how / if Debian
can handle versioned dependencies with virtual packages anyway.

It is not always necessary to install a kernel within the Debian
installation, and the fact that a particular kernel is installed does
not mean it is running.
Therefore, we never use package dependencies to require a minimum kernel
version.
