Upgrade of udisks2 is kept back

[Member Xaver]

Sinnce about a month there is a new version of udisks 2, but upgrade has been kept back on my antix-sid-system
udisks2/sid 2.8.1-2.0nosystemd2 amd64 [aktualisierbar von: 2.8.1-1.0nosystemd1]

To check out why I have run

# apt install --reinstall -d udisks2
...
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  systemd-must-die
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  elogind libelogind0 libpam-elogind
The following packages will be upgraded:
  udisks2
...

But so far I have not needed elogind on my Openbox system with SpaceFM. Why now?
There should not be a conflict with systemd-must-die either.
My guess: There seems to be something wrong with dependencies (?).

systemd-must-die is not needed, in fact, I don’t think it was ever needed.

udisks2 now needs libpam-elogind so elogind gets installed.

Previously it needed consolekit, but consolekit is seen as harmful according to the latest changelog.

consolekit (0.4.6-6.1) unstable; urgency=medium

* Non-maintainer upload.
* Mark packages as kfreebsd-any hurd-any. On Linux, the consolekit package
is actively harmful and should no longer be installed. See #888892

@ anticapitalista Thanks for your reply.
To my understanding systemd-must-die and prevent-systemd do nothing except creating conflicts with packages, which are related to systemd. Yes, they are not needed. But they might be helpful as a signal to keep systemd out of the system. If systemd is knocking at your door, they are indicated to be removed.

I now have deinstalled systemd-must-die. Then the upgrade of udisks2 worked without problems. The elogind stuff was installed as dependencies.
It seems to me, that consolekit and libck-connector0 are not needed anymore. So I have purged them. Everything seems to work fine, but at login I get the following error message:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit was not provided by any .service files
What should I do about it?

Since we use slim login manager, it is best to keep consolekit for now. On my sid box, I cannot get to desktop without it.
