systemd (229-4ubuntu21.23) xenial; urgency=medium

  * d/p/core-use-an-AF_UNIX-SOCK_DGRAM-socket-for-cgroup-age.patch:
    - prevent logind from leaking session files (LP: #1846787)

systemd (229-4ubuntu21.22) xenial; urgency=medium

  [ Dan Streetman ]
  * d/t/systemd-fsckd, d/t/cmdline-upstart-boot:
    - skip on s390x; requires grub (LP: #1830477)
  * d/p/ask-password-prevent-buffer-overrow-when-reading-fro.patch:
    - prevent buffer overflow when reading keyring (LP: #1814373)

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Specify Ubuntu's Vcs-Git

  [ Balint Reczey ]
  * Append /snap/bin to default PATH.
    Snapd ships snapd-env-generator, but systemd does not not support
    environment generators. Hard-coding /snap/bin is less risky than
    backporting environment generator support and since snaps are considered
    to be first class packages on Ubuntu /snap/bin can safely added to
    the default PATH. (LP: #1771858)

  [ Ioanna Alifieraki ]
  * d/p/systemctl-Replace-check_one_unit-by-get_state_one_un.patch
    - Backport upstream PR#2768 needed for next patch
  * d/p/systemctl-load-unit-if-needed-in-systemctl-is-active.patch
    - Backport upstream PR#7997 to fix alias service reports inactive while
      aliased is active (LP: #1828892)
