In this case:

	1) split out systemd libs from systemd PN
if('systemd' in IMAGE_FEATURES) {

	2) use bbappend to enable systemd support in polkit
}

Images with sysvinit will be working the same as before, just with
libsystemd-logind.so.X being installed. Images with systemd get working
session tracking.

Have a look at
http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/log/meta/recipes-support/consolekit
to see that consolekit had been broken in oe-core for a long, long time and
noone cared.

That is why I want to make an exception for polkit and udisks to keep
initmanager selection an IMAGE_FEATURE combined with DISTRO_FEATURE. A
distro maintainer can then choose to support one or more initmanagers and in
the case for multiple it can be set per image.

regards,

Koen
