logind: 243~rc2 break VT/tty switching on Fedora 31 #13437

Description

@jwrdegoede

On a fully up2date Fedora 31 system with systemd 243~rc2 VT/tty switching is broken.

To reproduce:

  1. Take fully up2date default Fedora 31 workstation install (so using the GNOME desktop in Wayland mode)
  2. Log in
  3. Switch to VT6 by pressing CTRL + ALT + F6
  4. Now try to switch to VT5 with either ALT + F6 or with ALT + cursor-left
  5. Notice how the VT is now stuck and stays at VT6, switching back to the GNOME user session by pressing ALT+F2 is also broken

Downgrading systemd (and only systemd) to 242-6.git9d34e79.fc31 fixes things, after this switching to VT5 or back to the GNOME user session works normally.

This was originally reported against gnome-shell but after debugging this it appears to be a systemd bug, see here for the gnome-shell issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1549
