Bug#778608: systemd: please consider backporting logind CAP_SYS_ADMIN fixes

[Christian Seiler]

Package: systemd
Version: 215-12
Severity: normal
Tags: fixed-upstream patch

Dear Maintainers,

please consider backporting the fixes in upstream that make logind
work if CAP_SYS_ADMIN is not set, namely:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=4d858e7d9f39038713f760d7acc64acf7bba2aa7
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=11c6476a08af7a8a9ae6a2d0f8370587f7b31663

(These commits are part of systemd-219.)

I've attached a (tested) patch that is a backport of the commits I
linked.

Even if you don't think this is something that should go into the
release itself, please consider this for the first point release.

@Michael Biebl: as with #759001, if you are generally in favor of
this, I can ask the release team for pre-approval. If you don't want
this change in at all for 215, just close this bug.

Thanks!

Christian
