Yeah, that is probably assigned to the wrong package, but it is not so 
clear, what the correct package is. I'm reassigning this to gnome-shell, 
as I'm sure that gnome-shell at least depends on systemd being PID 1.

This is no bug in systemd, but rather a missing dependency of 
gnome-shell and probably also gdm3 on systemd-sysv. But this dependency 
cannot be added, because systemd-sysv conflicts with the essential 
sysvinit package. Thus a resolution of this has to wait until after the 
technical committee has decided on the init system issue (Bug #727708).

Have you tried using systemd as PID 1?

Best regards,
Andreas
