[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#747105: policykit-1: depends on systemd

> ConsoleKit is dead for years

I wouldn't rather call it "dead for years" --
v0.4.5 relesed 2011-05-02, v0.4.6 released 2013-08-19:

thanks for suggestion!

now I would rather call that software deprecated
and its development stalled and discontinued.

OK, so if we have the following changes in policykit-1 (0.105-5):

-Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, consolekit, dbus
+Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, libpam-systemd [linux-any], consolekit [!linux-any], dbus

would you please clarify the Debian changelog entry a little?
e. g.:

-  * Enable systemd support on linux architectures
+  * Switch from consolekit to systemd-logind dependency on linux architectures
