usually, we added a workaround to hide these messages on reboot. However, we already know, for system updated from Bullseye to Bookworm, this might not work always.

@howardroark
Was your systemt update from Debian Bullseye to Debian Bookworm before?

Yes, I did it recently.

ok, unfortunately we are still not sure why the messages are not hidden on some systems. :thinking:

Hi - have just started seeing this error after installing avahi-daemon - I am not sure why this package has a dependancy on DBus - there is a dbus reference in the startup initd script - however this can easily be changed to remove the dbus association

It pulls dbus as dependency, but obviously it tries to contact systemd-logind though it. You really see the Failed to set wall message error somewhere, in its journalctl -u avahi-daemon logs or where? Or is it only the 2nd part of the log, about failing logind access, or even about dbus access only?

In its config I see only a dbus connection to provide an additional client API through it: avahi-daemon.conf(5) — avahi-daemon — Debian bookworm — Debian Manpages
Nothing about logind.
