Raising severity to serious, as this bug "makes the package in
question unuseable or mostly so".

I've tracked this down to the fact that we're still building
spice-vdagent with --with-session-info=console-kit.

On one of my (Jessie) systems, i see this error message: "the name
org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit was not provided by any .service files".

On another (sid) system I instead see:
  spice-vdagentd[868]: GetSessionForUnixProcess failed: Unable to
                       lookup session information for process '1033'
  spice-vdagentd[868]: GetActiveSession failed: Seat has no active session

Once I've rebuilt the package with --with-session-info=systemd, all
these errors disappeared, and "resize guest to match the window size"
and clipboard sharing functionality started working again :)

I've pushed the current state of my work to the
bug756243-systemd-for-session-info branch in Vcs-Git. I intend to NMU
this to DELAYED+5 shortly.

Note that we also pass --with-init-script=systemd to ./configure, and
spice-vdagent is built only on Linux architectures, so this change
doesn't seem to make the porting situation seriously worse than it
already is.

Cheers,
