I did a new install of stretch using the init system openrc.  After that I
discovered (as I see mentioned in the 4 Apr 2017 message) that I could not
install a working virtual kvm machine.

libvirt-daemon-system
  (which provides /etc/init.d/libvirtd which launches /usr/sbin/libvirtd)
says:
  Suggests: systemd
This is incorrect!  It
  Depends: policykit-1 which
   Depends: libpam-systemd which
    Depends: systemd

Please change the dependencies so that a kvm can be run on a system using an
init system other than systemd.
