Description: Since yesterday, I cannot my computer to shutdown using gnome system menu.

Every single time I try to shutdown, gdm gets loaded again. My archlinux is fully updated using testing repo


Additional info:

Up-to-date using testing

Steps to reproduce:

Upgrade your archlinux to testing so you can have a "bleeding edge" version. Try to shut down, using ctrl + alt + del or gnome system / shutdown menu option.

Wait.

GDM gets reloaded instead of going to shutdown process.

Just tell me what log to add.

I think it can be reproduced this way.

Use ctrl + alt + delete shortcut => gdm is reloaded.

Use System / Shutdown menu => gdm is not reloaded, shutdown goes its end.

It came to extreme problem. This morning, as gdm don't "die", I have to switch to a tty session, and type halt. But halt process doesn't go right.

I had to shutdown user power button.

And now, when I want to start my archlinux, I got this :

"linux:(none)" right after grub exits...

are you sure the last problem is not because of bash-4.2.005 and readline-6.2.001 from testing?

Well, I guess so. I hope archrollback will help that I can get working packages. Looks like my lunch time will be a patching one :(

Well, it looked like it was a bug from me. Removing tracker-git fixed the problem. So, a tracker-git bug, not a gnome one. Requesting closure right now.
