I found what causes reproducibility: editing the file /etc/pam.d/common-session and removing or commenting out the optional(?!!) line session optional pam_systemd.so makes the issue reproducible. - Curiously, removing that line also causes GDM3 to become unusable (and I was thinking it was just too buggy to be used... which it is, really). I wonder how that line came to be missed on my machines: I upgraded from wheezy (which was upgraded from previous releases). So, to reproduce the issue, on a "plain jessie" machine (e.g. freshly installed from debian-8.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso): - Edit the file /etc/pam.d/common-session and remove or comment out the line session optional pam_systemd.so then reboot. - Log in to the machine; probably not via GDM3 as that might not work at all; not via getty as then the issue will not show(?!!); but log in via XDM, or via telnetd or sshd. (Wonder if sshd login with keys would bypass PAM and then not need the editing above.) - Become root (log in as such, or use su). - As root, do commands: # Set things up mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/mytest echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/mytest/tasks # Check it is there grep . /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/mytest/tasks # Do the systemd thing systemctl daemon-reload systemctl start anacron # See it gone grep . /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/mytest/tasks Cheers, Paul Paul Szabo p...@maths.usyd.edu.au http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au/u/psz/ School of Mathematics and Statistics University of Sydney Australia _______________________________________________ Pkg-systemd-maintainers mailing list Pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-systemd-maintainers
