[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#774676: policykit-1: systemd-shim does not eliminate hard dependency on libpam-systemd -> systemd

[Daniel Dickinson]

Package: policykit-1
Version: 0.105-8
Severity: normal

policykit has a hard dependency on libpam-systemd which has a hard dependency on
systemd AND the dependency is NOT eliminated through the use of systemd-shim.

It is probably intended that systemd-shim OUGHT to eliminate the depency on
systemd HOWEVER THIS IS NOT THE CASE.

I believe there is a packaging error in which libpam-systemd has been incorrectly
specified in such a way that the dependency is not resolved through the use
of systemd-shim.

Regards,

Daniel
