Bug Description

The /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.login1.service file in systemd-services contains

Exec=/lib/systemd/systemd-logind-launch

However, /lib/systemd/systemd-logind-launch doesn’t exist, because it’s missing from debian/systemd-services.install. For some reason this doesn’t seem to be causing obvious problems, but I thought you’d like to know.

This is different from bug 1302264. It’s much less severe, but still present in systemd-services 204-5ubuntu17.

Well, yes, but we don't use this script to start logind but we start it in /etc/init/systemd-logind.conf. So we have never needed logind-launch, and don't intend to interfere with the upstart job. This will only come in if/when we move to systemd as pid 1.
