Problem with "systemd-logind" service on an LDAP client
Hello,
I'm running Debian Sid 64bit inside a KVM virtual machine. The system is
an LDAP and NFS client of a Debian 8 server. This setup has been working
fine for month. At some point this week (Wednesday?) a new version
of "libc-bin" was released and I rebooted the machine afterwards.
Since the update "systemd" is really unhappy:
Aug 27 09:52:39 sheridan systemd[1]: Starting Login Service...
Aug 27 09:53:04 sheridan systemd[1]: systemd-logind.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Aug 27 09:53:04 sheridan systemd[1]: Failed to start Login Service.

Aug 27 09:53:04 sheridan systemd[1]: systemd-logind.service: Service has no hold-off time, scheduling restart.
Aug 27 09:53:04 sheridan systemd[1]: Stopped Login Service.
This problem keeps repeating indefinitely. I've tried to debug it but
my knowledge on "systemd" is still very limitted. I got as far as
running "journalctl -xe" which still doesn't tell me what is really
going wrong:
