I really don't think that is true. There is no direct relationship between
policykit-1 and systemd. And our policykit works with either elogind or
consolekit, so you have options.
If you want a integrated gui desktop that allows you to do privileged things
like install packages, you will need policykit-1 or something similar.
Alternatively, use apt or aptitude from the commandline.
