Package: udisks2
Version: 2.1.3-5

Actually udisks2 depends on libpam-systemd. Therefore systemd-shim must be 
installed on sysvinit-core systems.

The archived bug #752296 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=752296) describes that it isn't possible to remove this 
dependency.

But it seems that on Gentoo it is possible to build udisks2 (2.1.3) with or 
without systemd dependencies.

According to

http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/sys-fs/udisks/udisks-2.1.3.ebuild?view=markup

the configure file is changed for non-systemd systems.

Line 63:
use systemd || { sed -i -e 's:libsystemd-login:&disable:' configure || die; }

Could udisks2 be splitted into a systemd and a non-systemd variant?
Then the non-systemd variant could be used on systems which using sysvinit-
core (instead of systemd-sysv)...
