Hi John,
Thanks for getting back to me.
This is the result:

systemd is the active init system, please switch to another before removing
systemd.
dpkg: error processing package systemd (--remove):

addgroup: The group `systemd-journal' already exists as a system group.
Exiting.
Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Which is understandable I guess but I've not found how to fix.
Cheers,
Richard.

Hi all,
I would be very grateful if any Debian expert out there could offer me
some advice.
Somehow, probably editing my sources.list(s) in response to the recent
jessie updates removal, I have managed to break the apt update/upgrade
process:
:~# apt-get upgrade

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
systemd : Depends: udev (>= 208-8) but it is not installed
Recommends: libpam-systemd but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
After searching I've tried various suggested fixes such as
apt-get -f install
That first one is the most likely one to clean things up.
What is the result when you run "apt-get -f install"?
Cheers,
John
