[Bug 1547662] [NEW] user systemd services are not started on login

[Jonathan Kamens]

Public bug reported:

I have two user systemd services, which you can see running here:

● [hostname elided]
    State: running
     Jobs: 0 queued
   Failed: 0 units
    Since: Tue 2016-02-16 20:03:38 EST; 2 days ago
   CGroup: /user.slice/user-1000.slice/user at 1000.service
           ├─1922 /lib/systemd/systemd --user
           ├─1969 (sd-pam)         
           ├─x10-transceiver.service
           │ ├─6074 /usr/bin/perl /home/jik/src/CM19aDriver/service.pl
           │ ├─6075 python CM19aDriver.py
           │ └─6080 tail -f cm19a.log
           └─eruv.service
             └─6083 /usr/bin/perl /home/jik/scripts/eruv.pl

They're running because I did "systemctl --user start x10-transceiver"
and "systemctl --user start eruv". They did NOT launch automatically
when I logged in, which is what this bug report is about. They're
supposed to.

Note that they are enabled:

● eruv.service - Eruv status checker
