With Xlibre X11 server and Fynedesk and systemd. Started with systemd. Built a rpm package and installed that. If you need the spec file I can provide that too.

Additionally these errors also appear.

I have tried to replicate but not found a way.
loginuid is not used by Fin itself, so I think it may be in the pam configuration on your computer?

It's probably related to systemd. I can't replicate if I directly run fin as root user.
