FWIW, I've been using the nosystemd angband repo and it seems to have
survived the transition.

So /etc/apt/sources.list looks like:

deb http://angband.pl/debian/ nosystemd main
deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free

And then I've got the usual "Pin-Priority: -1" for systemd-sysv and systemd.

With that, I have no systemd related packages, but otherwise it's
basically Jessie.
