Yeah, I know. That file was gone after I removed the systemd packages, and
it returned when I reinstalled them. I'm going to repeat the installation
and make before and after package lists, to see if I can figure out why
the login buttons don't work after reinstalling the systemd packages. I
can at least rule out the possibility that some important package didn't
get reinstalled.

HOW??? I've only been able to do that by pulling in packages from the
angband repo (or by renaming the above named file). Are you running xfce
and lightdm? Oh yeah, I did it a third way - give user sudo privs with
nopasswd for shutdown and reboot.
