[DNG] Avoid systemd as build dependency

Hi community. could someone point out the proper way of avoiding systemd build dependency? I find some packages require it at build time. https://github.com/libreswan/libreswan/issues/328 for example. It builds fine without it, however debian maintainers need it for their reasons. -- Regards,
