After a recent update I started having problems logging in.
It seems systemd-logind is timing out for some reason.
I see this in the journalctl -xe output
-- Unit systemd-logind.service has begun starting up.

I cannot use systemd-analyze because it reports
# systemd-analyze
Bootup is not yet finished. Please try again later.
I did try to restore the status quo ante, but this failed. It seems I can login
after a delay (presumably something is timing out).
