gdm3 and gnome broken after dist-upgrade / systemd
Hi,
I have some strange problems with my debian jessie release which I am
testing since more then a year.
I upgrade once a week. Today I have seen a strange message during booting:
>A start job is running for Create Volatile Files and Directories
So I decided to upgrade. This included updates of systemd (215-5+b1) and
systemd-shim (as I rembmer). After the upgrade gdm3 and gnome is no
longer working. Also Plymouth seem not to work during booting.
So I installed lightdm and xfce to get a working desktop. But I can not
figure out whats going wrong until my last upgrade.
During booting I have messages like this in my syslog:
systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit
systemd-vconsole-setup.service, ignoring: Unit
systemd-vconsole-setup.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
and these are the messages when I try to login to a gnome session which
is no longer working:
gnome-session[2001]: ** (gnome-session-failed:2454): WARNING **:
Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply.
Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply,
the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout
expired, or the network connection was broken.

can anybody help me? Can I do anything to provide you with necessary
information about my system?
Thanks for any help
Ralph
