Title:
  Installing snapd on 14.04.5 desktop downgrades xorg et al.

Status in Snappy:
  Confirmed
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in systemd source package in Trusty:
  New

Bug description:
  When trying to install the latest snapd on a 14.04.5 desktop image,
  the installation of systemd (as a dependency of snapd) triggers a
  whole bunch of downgrades as systemd-shim is removed and replaced with
  systemd.

  We have to adjust the packaging such that installation of systemd does
  not trigger such behavior for packages depending on systemd-shim in
  trusty.
