Wile systemd-shim 7-1 → 7-2 is essentially a no-op (i. e. harmless), you
really shouldn't have gotten that version automatically yet -- it's
still in proposed. Pretty pretty please do *not* run utopic-proposed!
It's pretty much guaranteed to break your computer and is not supported.
As for the lightdm failure, I just heard from Chris confirming that
there's apparently some trouble with last night's version (bug 1365336).
For this, please run "sudo apt-get -f install" to fix a (probably) half-
broken installation, and disable -proposed.

Title:
Could not get session id for session
Status in Light Display Manager:
New
Status in “systemd-shim” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
A few hours back we got two packages upgraded: systemd-shim (7.2) and lightdm
(1.11.8-0ubuntu1).
On that pc, i've closed the session then shutdown: everything was stable, and
its a fresh standard installation using upstart for booting.
Here are the troubles met at the next cold boot (verbosy mode):
- the boot process goes well until "Add swap on /dev/sdb2" as
expected, but then nothing, only hdd activity continuing hardly
scanning, and no errors/warnings printed. Had to force a hardware's
reset, can't call tty1-6 (system not responsive ??)
- second cold boot: the system load fsck on the /home partition, then
the process continue to boot, made a pause at load the swap partition
again, the hdd was activity working a few (long) seconds, so i've
tried to switch to tty1 and successed. I've reconfigured lightdm and
tried startx : it seemed to continue its processes even if the hdd
was again hardly scanning unsually. But i only got a black screen: no
mouse pointer, no tty. So reboot again.
- third try: same issue, but was able to open tty when it did a pause
at swap partition loading: so i reconfigured lightdm and choose gdm as
default that time. Startx was ran and after some hard hdd scanning, it
finally loaded a degraded login screen: no mouse but the keyboard was
working. After login validation, gnome-shell appeared as expected, but
again no mouse; a ctrl+alt+T opened a terminal, where i'm right now,
to report that issue.
