[systemd-devel] homectl --auto-login=yes has no effect

[Damian Ivanov]

In Fedora I can't properly use homed yet, since default PAM
configuration doesn't work
with homed and there currently is no way to use SElinux with homed.
gnome-control-center also doesn't work with users created by homed... :(
