<pre>A number of so-called compat libs was removed from systemd recently, see
<a href="https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/4de282c">https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/4de282c</a>, among other
libsystemd-login.
Even before those libraries had to be enabled by configure option
--enable-compat-libs which was e. g. removed on Arch Linux as of systemd 229.
Spice vdagent on the other hand seems to need libsystemd-login to use systemd
as "session-info source" as running configure on systems lacking the library
fails
<span class="quote">> $configure --with-session-info=systemd
> [...]
> checking for LIBSYSTEMD_LOGIN... no
> configure: error: libsystemd-login support explicitly requested, but some \</span >
required packages are not available
Using ConsoleKit which has been banned from many distributions by now or no
session-info source at all isn't really an option so it seems that
spice-vdagent has to get adjusted.
Tests performed on up to date Arch Linux with fff3058 or 0.16.0 (same
findings).</pre>
