Bug description:
  [Impact]
  systemd used to pre-depend on the libraries used by systemctl or something, but now systemctl uses libsystemd-shared, and there are no pre-depends for that, meaning that systemctl fails in maintainer scripts of other packages.

  [Test case]
  Grab the apt-clone file from comment #20 in bug 1766890, and upgrade it to bionic with apt dist-upgrade -o APT::Immediate-Configure=0. Make sure to not see error about missing libraries in systemctl.

  [Regression potential]
  Installation ordering changes. Might make things harder for apt to solve.

  [Other info]
  Debian 897986
