Package: libpam-systemd
Version: 228-2
Severity: normal
Hello,
I noticed a weird bug that is possibly caused by libpam-systemd.
Steps to reproduce (on a box with systemd as PID 1 process):
0) login on TTY1 (virtual terminal 1) as a regular user
1) start an X session with
$ startx
2) press [Ctrl+Alt+F2], in order to switch to TTY2
3) login on TTY2 as the same user
4) logout by pressing [Ctrl+D] on the empty command prompt
5) awkwardly the screen goes automatically back to the X session
(rather than showing a fresh new TTY2 login prompt)
6) even more awkwardly, any keyboard and mouse input is ignored
except for [Ctrl+Alt+F1], which however causes the screen to
go blank and immediately enter sleep mode
7) the only way out seems to be a poweroff command, issued by
pressing the power button (which is handled by acpid)
I didn't try to SSH into the box and take a look at the system...
I suspect that this bug is caused by libpam-systemd, since starting
an X session on a box with systemd as PID 1 process, but without
libpam-systemd installed, causes the same inability to use X input
devices.
I noticed this bug some days ago with libpam-systemd/227-2: I waited
for version 228-2 to migrate to testing, before reporting the bug.
After reproducing the same exact misbehavior with libpam-systemd/228-2,
I decided that it is time to report it.
Could you please investigate this bug and fix it and/or forward it
upstream, as appropriate?
Thanks for your time!
Bye.
