My gut feeling tells me to depend on systemd-sysv as that one is the one setting the symlink from /sbin/init to systemd, but that seems kind of wrong for me since it has "sysv" in the name, the package description doesn't suggest that it is a package THIS central, and I don't know whether a, for example, dracut-based initramfs will care where /sbin/ init points to at all.

It's the correct approach IMO.

Frankly, no one reads the package description of systemd-sysv.

I read it yesterday to find out whether it's the right package to depend on for my package and ended up with "okay, that was the wrong way".
