Created attachment 357238 [details] emerge info When I try to login my KDE, I always get error: "Unit console-kit-daemon.service failed to load". But everything seems work fine. I'm on stable arch.
That is normal since consolekit-0.4.6 dropped unit files by default (you can still install them setting a USE flag), but this shouldn't cause any problem since, when running systemd, consolekit should be useless
It seems solved. The problem is because kdm has consolekit flag enabled through kde profile, though I globally disable consolekit flag. Really hard to find. Really user unfriendly. I also see systemd use flag on kdm 4.11. So hope this doesn't happen on kde 4.11. It's really horrible with stable arch and systemd....

As of KDE 4.11, we no longer force the consolekit USE flag on for kdm. See bug #468500. > Really hard to find. Really user unfriendly. I also see systemd use flag > on kdm 4.11.

In my opinion, systemd was stabilised too early as package support is still emerging. @systemd team, please mark this bug as you see fit.
Will close as WORKSFORME as this is already documented in Systemd wiki page and we are trying to work on systemd profiles for solving this kind of issues (but it's hard to do due "systemd" USE flag causing circular dep issues when sys-apps/systemd is still not installed) Yichao, regarding systemd support on stable, a lot of stuff is going to be stabilized soon to improve the situation, if you want to report any pending problem, please don't hesitate to do

Otherwise -consolekit will be overwritten by profile.
I am not sure if it's a good policy to suggest people to use.mask flags themselves :/, maybe other option would be to drop the consolekit flag from profile and enable it in exact ebuilds wanting it. And other one would be to live with this as this only results in a warning that is not really hurting :/
