As Tom pointed out, it was an upstream decision by polkit to require
logind - without forking polkit, there is nothing we can do (and to be
honest, we have neither the manpower nor the motivation to do that). To
make matters worse, consolekit is (afaik) no longer developed.

This means (as was long announced) that all setups that use polkit will
soon require systemd.
