If you do an 'rpm -V systemd' and you don't see any result for
/sbin/init or /lib/systemd/systemd, my bet would be false positive.
-V means verify: compares the checksums of the files belonging to that
package with what's registered in the RPM database, and alerts for
changes ("5" in the output IIRC).
