Sorry I'm late to the party, but what about this as a workaround?

# dpkg-divert --local --add /etc/init.d/systemd-logind
# ln -s /bin/true /etc/init.d/systemd-logind

In the chroot, obviously.  :-)

It's working for me, anyway.  I did the same thing with /sbin/initctl,
per Bug #430224.

Title:
  failure to update libpam-systemd in 14.04 due to missing logind init
  script

Bug description:
  Hi,

  while running inside an i386 lubuntu 14.04 chroot, upgrading libpam-
  systemd to version 204-5ubuntu20.2 fails leaving dpkg in a broken
  state. 'apt-get -f install' from within the chroot will not fix it,
  but if the build is made bootable and put into a iso/VM you can
  recover that way in a live session.

  the problem seems to be the /var/lib/dpkg/info/libpam-systemd:i386.prerm script failing to bring down the logind daemon with 'invoke-rc.d systemd-logind stop', because invoke-rd.d is only looking for the /etc/init.d/ script (doesn't exist) and not /etc/init/systemd-logind.conf (does exist).
  ?

  In a web-search I notice a few others running into the same bug,

  launchpad bug #1323575 seems to be a duplicate of this one.

  
  perhaps related to older launchpad bug #1305395 ?

  note we are also suffering from a failure with update-initramfs, not sure of the root cause of that one but I thought I'd mention it in case they were related, since they both started happening about the same time, a couple weeks ago. (launchpad bug #1317602)
  It all worked ok after the inital releases of 14.04, so something to do with a package update since then.

  
  thanks,
  Hamish
