Package: systemd
Version: 249.7-1

Dear Maintainer,

changing IdleAction options inside /etc/systemd/logind.conf does not
have any effect on automatic sleep. In addition, even specifying a
command that should explicitly prevent the system from going to sleep on
idle has also no effect:

# systemd-inhibit --what=idle bash -c 'sleep 99999999999'
# systemd-inhibit --list
WHO                          UID  USER   PID    COMM            WHAT     WHY                                                       MODE 
ModemManager                 0    root   1213   ModemManager    sleep    ModemManager needs to reset devices                       delay
NetworkManager               0    root   1150   NetworkManager  sleep    NetworkManager needs to turn off networks                 delay
Unattended Upgrades Shutdown 0    root   1273   unattended-upgr shutdown Stop ongoing upgrades or perform upgrades before shutdown delay
bash -c sleep 99999999999    1000 karimo 2530   systemd-inhibit idle     Unknown reason                                            block

Bests!
