<pre>Starting with systemd-194, pam_systemd prints following error:
Oct 05 08:47:57 xxx sudo[6850]: pam_systemd(sudo:session): Asking logind to
create session: uid=1000 pid=6850 service=sudo type=tty class=user seat=seat0
vtnr=7 tty=/dev/
Oct 05 08:47:57 xxx sudo[6850]: pam_systemd(sudo:session): Failed to create
session: Invalid argument
Although command "sudo" still works, "su" fails with similar error:
Oct 05 08:41:51 xxx su[8140]: pam_systemd(su:session): Asking logind to create
session: uid=1000 pid=8140 service=su type=tty class=user seat=seat0 vtnr=7
tty=/dev/pts/8
Oct 05 08:41:51 xxx su[8140]: pam_systemd(su:session): Failed to create
session: Invalid argument
Oct 05 08:41:51 xxx su[8140]: pam_open_session: Cannot make/remove an entry for
the specified session
Reverting to systemd-193 solves this problem.</pre>
