Updated plan:

Right now:
 - Switch ubuntu-minimal to "init" (no-op as init's preferred alternative is upstart).
 - Add "upstart" dependency to ubuntu-touch, as an extra precaution; lots of packages in -touch actually depend on upstart, but let's be explicit. (No-op right now, but this will prepare us for doing the switch)
 - Explicitly uninstall systemd-sysv in livecd-rootfs (http://paste.ubuntu.com/10525503/) to convince apt to uninstall systemd-sysv and install upstart.

When we do the switch:

 - Upload "init" with flipped dependencies (systemd-sysv | upstart)
 - Add "systemd-sysv" to ubuntu-standard for switching upgrades.

Bug description:
  As per https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/core-1411
  -systemd-migration we want to switch vivid from upstart to systemd,
  which will happen in ubuntu-minimal. Currently ubuntu-touch also uses
  ubuntu-minimal, but we can't switch ubuntu-touch to systemd yet.

  So we need to give touch its own minimal, by copying platform.vivid's
  required seed to ubuntu-touch.vivid, and then either build a new
  ubuntu-touch-minimal, or just fold it into the existing ubuntu-touch
  metapackage. (Opinions?)
