[Bug 1714431] Re: Can not login after switch to runlevel 3 from 1

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Removing xenial task for now, and marking the whole bug report as
incomplete. The behaviour w.r.t default systemd target and lack of
runlevels has been the same both in xenial and up until now. If there is
some specific behaviour that is required, please clearly document it
such that we can check if artful is affected and/or if and when
behaviour has regressed. Until then a xenial task is not relevant, as I
use it as my todo list of bugs to fix in the upcoming SRU.

** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => Incomplete

** No longer affects: systemd (Ubuntu Xenial)

** Tags added: xenial

** Tags added: arm64
