Assunto: [devuan-dev] bug#540: elogind unmounts /run/user/$UID tmpfs filesystem after logging in again
Hi Mark,

I played around with the slim PAM configuration and found a possible
solution: change the elogind class from "user" to "greeter". Slim does
not fork a helper process so changing it makes sense to me. When a new
session is created, previous sessions close in the background, even if
the logout/login cycle is rapid. Looks promising?

This is what I changed (needs polishing, obviously):

The result:
