It's unexpected for me, and will be substantially difficult to message
("install this but not on a desktop"). So I think we need to press on
this to understand it better. We do want snaps on 14.04, its a key part
of the value we're offering, but we can't make that a choice that
negatively impacts a desktop.

Title:
Installing snapd on 14.04.5 desktop downgrades xorg et al.
Status in Snappy:
Confirmed
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When trying to install the latest snapd on a 14.04.5 desktop image,
the installation of systemd (as a dependency of snapd) triggers a
whole bunch of downgrades as systemd-shim is removed and replaced with
systemd.
We have to adjust the packaging such that installation of systemd does
not trigger such behavior for packages depending on systemd-shim in
trusty.
