Package: systemd Version: 230-1 Severity: normal >From the changelog of systemd version 230:
> systemd-logind will now by default terminate user processes that are > part of the user session scope unit (session-XX.scope) when the user > logs out. It is now indeed the case that any background processes that were still running are killed automatically when the user logs out of a session, whether it was a desktop session, a VT session, or when you SSHed into a machine. Now you can no longer expect a long running background processes to continue after logging out. I believe this breaks the expecations of many users. For example, you can no longer start a screen or tmux session, log out, and expect to come back to it. For this reason, I think it is a bad decision on the part of the systemd maintainers to enable this feature by default, and it should rather be disabled by default in Debian, either by compiling systemd with --without-kill-user-processes or by setting KillUserProcesses=no in /etc/systemd/logind.conf. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages systemd depends on: ii adduser 3.114 ii libacl1 2.2.52-3 ii libapparmor1 2.10-4 ii libaudit1 1:2.5.2-1 ii libblkid1 2.28-5 ii libc6 2.22-9 ii libcap2 1:2.25-1 ii libcap2-bin 1:2.25-1 ii libcryptsetup4 2:1.7.0-2 ii libgcrypt20 1.7.0-2 ii libgpg-error0 1.22-2 ii libkmod2 22-1.1 ii liblzma5 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2.1 ii libmount1 2.28-5 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.2 ii libseccomp2 2.3.1-1 ii libselinux1 2.5-3 ii libsystemd0 230-1 ii mount 2.28-5 ii util-linux 2.28-5 Versions of packages systemd recommends: ii dbus 1.10.8-1 ii libpam-systemd 230-1 Versions of packages systemd suggests: pn systemd-container <none> ii systemd-ui 3-4 Versions of packages systemd is related to: ii udev 230-1 -- Configuration Files: /etc/systemd/system.conf changed [not included] -- no debconf information
