[Bug 1301544] [NEW] cannot boot with latest systemd updates

[Julien Aubin]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

With latest systemd updates with cgmanager support, system won't boot if
/usr is mounted on a different partition from /. The reason (that you
can see when booting system in failsafe mode and trying to launch dpkg
or anything and seeing that system is complaining) is that the system is
trying to load library libcgmanager.so.0 while udev is not fully started
and mountpoints not completely mounted.

Workaround consists in copying libcgmanager.so.0 and
libcgmanager.so.0.0.0 from /usr/lib/x86-64-linux-gnu to /lib/x86-64
-linux-gnu and everything is fine again.

This regression was introduced when fixing bug 1297363
