Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch)
Release: 13.10
i3lock:
Installed: 2.5-1
Candidate: 2.5-1
Version table:
*** 2.5-1 0

Sometimes i can't get my screen unlocked back and i had to switch to the
text console by Ctrl-Alt-F2, log in there and kill the locker. There are
auth error messages in /var/log/auth.log appear on unlock attempt:
Sep 6 09:19:34 zimbabve unix_chkpwd[28581]: password check failed for user
(mike)
Sep 6 09:19:34 zimbabve i3lock: pam_unix(i3lock:auth): authentication failure;
logname= uid=1000 euid=1000 tty= ruser= rhost= user=mike
Googling discovers only the fact that this behavior is common for some
other lockers like Xlock and so on.
Maybe systemd-logind related bug
