Bug#930019: default-jre wants to uninstall sysvinit-core to install systemd

[Gianluigi Tiesi]

Package: default-jre
Version: 2:1.11-71
Severity: important

I've just installed buster and I'm using sysvinit-core instead of systemd,
when I ask to install default-jre (without recommends) apt-get asks me
to remove sysvinit-core and install systemd.

Blacklisting systemd with apt pinning makes apt-get to install default-jre
without touching sysvinit-core, but not always.

Once I've got this error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 default-jre : Depends: openjdk-11-jre but it is not going to be installed

Regards
