Bug#834148: systemd-inhibit no longer respected

Package: systemd
Version: 231-1
Severity: important
File: /bin/systemd-inhibit

I've been running processes, such as backup or sync tools, as
children of 'systemd-inhibit --what=handle-lid-switch' to make sure
that the system doesn't suspend when I close the lid until the
processes have finished.

A few weeks ago, this just stopped working. Now, if I run e.g.

  systemd-inhibit cat

and close the lid, the system just suspends without any log entries,
errors, or additional information. The inhibitor is listed
nonetheless in the plain --list output.

I'd love to provide more information, but I wouldn't even know where
to start collecting it.
