** Description changed: When systemd is updated (through the update manager), the screen/session locks when processing the update. I've had this happen twice I think, and the only suspicious packages are the systemd ones. + + + SRU INFORMATION: + ================ + - Fix from wily/xenial: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/diff/?id=b8c239 ; This follows other distributions like Fedora which never restarted logind on package upgrades. This just causes too much fallout from clients which listen to the D-Bus address and get confused when logind goes away and comes back. + - Regression potential: This is harmless as long as we don't push an urgent fix to logind itself as an SRU. In this case we might need to re-add the restart on upgrade (with a version guard). This is unlikely/seldom, though. For this particular upgrade there is no regression potential as there are no logind changes (for the record, we've never had a logind SRU so far). + - Test case: + * Check "pidof systemd-logind" + * Upgrade "systemd-services" and "libpam-systemd" to the -proposed version + * The above upgrade will restart logind (as we can't retroactively fix the prerm of the old package) and "pidof systemd-logind" should now show a different pid. + * sudo apt-get install --reinstall libpam-systemd → now "pidof systemd-logind" should be identical to the previous one, i. e. from now on upgrades of libpam-systemd do not restart logind any more. + ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: systemd 222-1ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.0.0-4.6-generic 4.0.7 Uname: Linux 4.0.0-4-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.17.3-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Mon Jul 13 09:49:47 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-01-31 (162 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Release amd64 (20141022.1) MachineType: To Be Filled By O.E.M.
