Hi all,

I'm reading on the internet that systemctl poweroff should work for
normal user if he is the only one logged in, he is logged in locally
and his session is active. I seem to be meeting these conditions:

# loginctl
   SESSION        UID USER             SEAT
         2       1000 lukash           seat0

$ loginctl show-session 2
Id=2
User=1000
Name=lu
Timestamp=Sat 2016-01-16 17:27:30 CET
TimestampMonotonic=9614418
VTNr=7
Seat=seat0
Display=:0
Remote=no
Service=lightdm
Desktop=awesome
Scope=session-2.scope
Leader=529
Audit=2
Type=x11
Class=user
Active=yes
State=active
IdleHint=no
IdleSinceHint=0
IdleSinceHintMonotonic=0

But invoking the command gives me:

$ systemctl poweroff
Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Access denied
Failed to power off system via logind: Access denied
Failed to start poweroff.target: Access denied

How is this supposed to work on Gentoo?

Thanks in advance,
Lukas
