With some significant risk, you could take out libsystemd0, let it do
its worst, and then try -- one at a time -- reinstalling the deleted
packages that you really need, one at a time. it's just possible that
some of these packages have alternative dependencies and that they can
be made to work by installing different dependencies from wht you
originally hadx.

hendriik and Rainer,

I'm not going to be doing anything risky atm because I'm still trying to get the window themes finished for the beta.

I have very few of the packages installed that are listed in # apt-cache rdepends libsystemd0:

I was rather shocked (and annoyed) to see that pulseaudio was installed with the default alpha2 xfce desktop and I think that is a likely source of the problem. I have been checking dependencies as I install packages and I didn't catch any so maybe it was something in the alpha itself that spawned those deps.
