I have a similar experience when trying to install systemd-sysv:

The following NEW packages will be installed:
  systemd-sysv{b} 
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 46 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/13.1 kB of archives. After unpacking 53.2 kB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 systemd-sysv : Conflicts: sysvinit but 2.88dsf-22.1 is installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

     Keep the following packages at their current version:
1)     systemd-sysv [Not Installed]                       



Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] n

I have the same problem on 2 computers so I guess it should be easy to 
reproduce. However, I will not install it now so that you can ask me more 
information if needed.

Best regards.
