Not understanding this reference - so, you're saying you *can* perform a
clean install of Jessie using sysvinit for the init system, just using a
special command during the install process?
No, what you can do is immediately uninstall systemd, and install
systemvinit- "late" in the install process.
Personally, I don't see that as equivalent. There are way too many
inter-twined dependencies that have to be unwound at that stage - making
this quite different from a clean sysvinit install.
That the bug dates back quite a while - originally reported by someone
trying to do a clean install of systemd, into Wheezy, makes me wonder
about how real support for multiple init systems is really going to be
as we move down the road.
I agree that it should be a showstopper. But then, I'm not part of the
release team.
