thats a red herring ... upstart is still used on all ubuntu systems to
manage graphical sessions, so everyone using a default install has it
around ... /sbin/init is long gone from the upstart package though ... so
even having it installed pid1 is systemd since 15.04 (except for the
phones) ...
i assume the package removal did simply not remove the sysvinit file (being
probably considered a conffile by debhelper and purge was not used (yay
aptitude ...) so it was left in place) and at a reboot the generator
identified there was no systemd unit for it and simply generated one.
