Dear Maintainer,

The SystemD 240 update has changed the handling of NOFILE for the init process 
and processes it directly spawns.

See: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/10244

Unfortunately, it seems that the patch above, which is forcing NOFILE to 
"infinity" (effectively 1G?) is now
having a serious adverse effect on various processes that are spawned by 
SystemD directly, see: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/10921
and a KDE init bug similarly.

I can't find a bug reporting this to debian, even though the root cause seems 
to be this patch to force "infinity" onto PID 1.

Hope this helps.
