As I remarked earlier, your suggestion makes sense. However I simply do not have the time to spare to do things that way - yes arguably I could actually save time but....

@vl23: This is a technical thread where somebody seeks a solution for a problem with his Debian system. If all you have to offer is not constructive bashing of an init system then don't post.
Hey, the guy is having trouble with systemd, I offered him an alternative.
If something is broken replacing it with something that works is a valid way to solve the problem

No. If someone has trouble with a Debian system "Use Slackware!" is not a valid answer, it merely shows us that you don't have a clue about the topic at hand and want to incite a flamewar, which by the way is against the LQ Rules.
The previous version - 0.105-4 - did not depend on systemd libs. The new version in unstable - 0.105-5 - depends on libpam-systemd and libsystemd-login0, which in turn drag in systemd which results in the package manager wanting to remove sysvinit-core
