Bug#771947: systemd: Desktop services not working after systemd upgrade, until a reboot is done: enabling WiFi in NetworkManager, reboot

[Ralf Jung]

Package: systemd
Version: 215-7
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

after upgrading the systemd package, some things stop working (at least after a
suspend-resume cycle):
* Clicking the WiFi checkbox in NetworkManager to enable WiFi has no effect
  (I am using the KDE frontend).
  I tried "rfkill unblock" with both IDs related to my WiFi card, to no avail.
  I even re-loaded the kernel module, again no success.
* Selecting "Reboot" in the K-Menu just logs me out. I have to select "reboot"
  again in lightdm to get a reboot.
After the reboot, WiFi behaving as usual again.

This happened with both recent systemd upgrades (215-6 and 215-7). I did not
yet do further testing to reproduce the issue, in case this is already
well-known. However, if necessary, I can do that. Just let me know which
information is most useful for you.

Note: This may well be RC (after all, it breaks other software). I leave that
decision up to you.

Kind regards,
Ralf
