Thanks Mike, The package is "libpam-systemd". A number of packages depend on it, even if one is not using systemd.

The primary issue is that, when one says "su - root", the code (circa line 385 of src/login/logind-dbus.c of the above patch) used to set the environment variable XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 (or whatever your original login uid was, if not 1000). This, in turn, can sometimes lead the ownership of /run/user/1000/dconf/user to root:root ... for instance, if you start pluma, as root, in that shell. When you starrt pluma, gtk initializes, causes dconf to initialize, which writes and chowns /run/user/1000/dconf/user to root. All subsequent gtk apps/daemons/services, started under your normal non-root uid will now fail, as they also gtk+dconf initialize, but now, they no longer have access to /run/user/1000/dconf/user ... which then triggers a large assortment and cascade of different bugs/fails, as different gtk apps bomb in different ways when the dconf init step fails. Based on bug history in the older redhat-rawhide bugzilla, I'm guessing that there are probably a dozen different debian bugs that are dupes, but don't know it yet. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
