Bug Description
Since the penultimate systemd package update in september (229-4ubuntu8) systemd does not send the remaining queued DBus signals (e.g. PropertiesChanged) when a unit's state changes to inactive.
Sending those signals has been working since the release of Ubuntu 16.04 and it is quite unfortunate for my use case this got broken while fixing another bug.
Adding this upstream change to the package restores the old functionality (a patch for the current systemd package (systemd 229-4ubuntu10) for xenial is attached): https:/
SRU TEST CASE: See comment #8
Regression potential: Low; the patch only widens the condition when a change signal is sent, thus at most clients would now get more D-Bus signals than before (in particular, the missing one at becoming inactive).
