I will try re-upgrading later this afternoon and let it run for a longer time, but the message was "$x sec / no limit".
Felipe, are you referring to /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/home.conf? I will try that out as well. With a normal mount I previously had cyclic dependency issues, as I want to bind-mount a local directory into that. It seems that this is wholly unsupported by systemd and I couldn't get it to work reliably, so now the bind mount is in /etc/rc.local as an ugly workaround. I can try making /home a normal mount again, but given that the issue seems to be a lack of network access, I don't see how that would succeed. I'll try to be sure though.
