  ubuntu@test-f:~$ loginctl list-sessions
  No sessions.
  
  [regression potential]
  
  any regression would likely occur during a systemd-logind restart,
  likely causing a loss of current login sessions.
  
  [scope]
  
- this is needed in f and earlier
+ this is needed only in f
  
  this is fixed upstream by commit
  ac4e03d45bcf4ad2e570cabdb218e9bac003cc80 which is included in v246, so
  this is fixed in h and later already.
+ 
+ in b, the function used to parse the /run/systemd/users/* files allows
+ either usernames or uids, so this bug does not exist there
