This would prevent autohaltd(8) from + shuting down the machine while there are queued jobs but no logins. + sat cannot stop autohaltd(8) by adding login entries, because + autohaltd(8) will only recognise them if they are in fact true + logins. + RATIONALE at(1) is far too complex. -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
