Bug#747112: systemd-sysv: At boot loop: "systemd: dbus.socket/start deleted to break ordering cycle starting sockets.target/start"

[Ole Bjørn Hessen]

Package: systemd-sysv
Version: 204-10
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
debian unstable; apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade
At later time probably a forced power off/on. While booting the machine is printing on console the text above.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Booting in recovery mode
   * What was the outcome of this action?
I tried another apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade.
Have not yet tried another reboot
I see the same bug in http://forum.siduction.org/index.php?topic=4517.0
