Bug#792882: /bin/machinectl: Re: /bin/machinectl: machinectl fails to login to container

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: systemd-container
Version: 225-1
Followup-For: Bug #792882


Hello Michael / Martin,

I'm following up on this bug report with the new issue, after the new
systemd package, which includes the new systemd-container package.


So, the initial problem in this bug report was about dependency on
dbus/systemd inside the container. That dependency satisfied, there
was/is another problem with PAM, for which there is no resolution yet.

Time being, the workaround it to add the TTY device name in securetty.


Now the new problem is that even though I satisfy all the workaround, it
still does not allow a login to the containers. I've tried it with
opensuse 13.1, Fedora 22 and Debian Sid.

As shown below, there's nothing interesting on the console log, that I
could provide.


Can you provide some help here?
Do you see this as a bug to be filed upstream?
