There is no need to install/remove anything.

No, but it's a logical thing to do if booting that way solves the
problem(s).

I think it is preferable to leave it installed, in order to learn if the
problem has been solved. I assume that all those problems are reported to
Bugzilla, and I know for certain that the maintainer is quite active
because I have reported several.

For a tester, I can't disagree, or for an ordinary bug. Systemd trouble is
no ordinary bug, while the OP certainly seems to be no willing tester.
Systemd is a whole class of bugs like KDE4.0-4.5 was, betaware foisted on
users prematurely. Ordinary mortal users who need their systems to just
work don't need and shouldn't be bothered by major system overhauls that
are incomplete, unless the devs' goal is to get them to switch to some
other distro.

You need to be.

SystemV is going to disappear sooner or later, like it or not. There is no
way around that, and I'm not saying I like it. You'd better get involved in
reporting the bugs that impede you using it, because I'm not. Perhaps in a
year or two there will not be systemv as backup and you will be stuck.


In a year or two it should be out of alpha/beta stage.
