Public bug reported:

I removed a bunch of GUI stuff (using apt, not forcing anything) from
several virtual machines would use fewer resources. Afterwards "service
apache2 start" just hung. I discovered this is due to the init script
calling "plymouth --ping" which was hanging. The workaround was to set
loop=yes in /etc/default/rcS.

It is totally wrong for apache or any non-GUI, non-desktop related
service to depend on a "graphical boot animation and logger" to start
correctly!
