Best solution would be to convince upstream to stop keeping it together and release other small subpackages.
Hm, that other packages depend on an init system (systemd) is unfortunately something very common nowadays and even wanted by openSUSE. If OBS is not able to handle it than it should probably be fixed in OBS. util-linux can still be built without systemd that's enough from upstream side.
The ideal is to have a small bootstrap cycle - irrespective of the init system du jour. A side effect of that is easier porting (not that that happens often, but it does).
Also python dep is not that unusual. If util-linux would have a python based build system then we were not able to build it on OBS at all? Can't believe it.
