Well,...

By chance, I just had it again:
# reboot 
PolicyKit daemon disconnected from the bus.
We are no longer a registered authentication agent.
g_dbus_connection_real_closed: Remote peer vanished with error: Underlying 
GIOStream returned 0 bytes on an async read (g-io-error-quark, 0). Exiting.

Timeout, server kronecker not responding.


So in any case, this isn't fixed with libpam-systemd.

Apart from that:
- The "openssh-server comes configured _out of the box_ with UsePAM=yes
enabled" is just a Debian speciality, the [upstream] default is "no".
- There is no reason why people shouldn't be allowed to use UsePAM=no,
so even if the pam module would fix this for the =yes case (which it
apparently doesn't) we'd still need to cover the =no case.
- Since Debian supports diversity wrt init systems I don't see that it
would be good to depend on libpam-systemd.
- I wouldn't be aware that SSH mandatorily uses dbus (which is I guess
the reason that we don't have a dependency on it).

Cheers,
Chris.
