You wrote there
I also have to insist that GNOME 3.10+ *needs* a working logind even for
basic functionality
What Olav wrote sounds quite different.
What *basic functionality* exactly is missing in GNOME 3.10 without logind?
Note that I am not referring to bugs that are not yet sorted out like
* Switch from consolekit to systemd-logind sessions. For some reason
gnome-shell 3.10 unlocking fails with consolekit...
3 months ago in gdm3 - I am referring to basic functionality that is
simply missing in GNOME 3.10 without logind.
