Severity: serious
Justification: stops src:systemd from migrating due to failing autopkgtest

Dear Maintainer(s),

debvm monkey patches [email protected] to inject '-a root' for
autologin. But this is fragile and breaks when the context changes, as
it has happened in systemd v259 where the ExecStart line changed a
bit. This causes debvm to break the unit by injecting an empty
ExecStart= without the override, so console login is broken.

Fortunately with util-linux 2.40 and systemd v247 we have much better
mechanism to configure getty, via credentials, so I've opened a MR to
do just that:

I would greatly appreciate an upload at your earliest convenience as
autopkgtest failure means src:systemd cannot migrate.

Thanks
