What about:

"ConsoleKit replaced by logind

With GNOME 3.6, polkit and networkmanager moving to extra, ConsoleKit has now been removed from the repositories. Any package that previously depended on it now relies on systemd-logind instead. That means that the system must be booted with systemd to be fully functional.

In addition to GNOME, both KDE and XFCE are also affected by this change."

This is mostly OK but not only users of DE's are affected. Its pretty much everyone but at least a mention on DM's should be added as well. And probably a mention on [0] as a solution for people not using one.

My 2 cents

No, my blog post is a workaround for the current status quo. If "everyone" is going to need to do this, we may as well just modify our own shipped /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc as proprosed here:

Yes, too many people will be affected. IMO this should be fixed before moving the packages to extra. Greg PS. (hopefully) fixed the editor, yay!
