suspend.target: Job suspend.target/start failed with result 'dependency'.

[Rip]

System fails to suspend, screen goes dark then turns back on. The lid won't suspend the system either.

Things I've tried:
turning off baloo, disconnecting from network.

From the logs:

        suspend.target: Job suspend.target/start failed with result 'dependency'.

I've observed this behavior a often enough during the past month that suspend is unpredictable. Luckily my computer has a suspend state indicator - some laptops don't.

A google search shows this to be a very old bug, earliest mentions are from 2014.

Your ethernet driver or hw is preventing suspend:

[231201.406221] pci_pm_suspend(): e1000e_pm_suspend+0x0/0x50 [e1000e] returns -2
[231201.406226] dpm_run_callback(): pci_pm_suspend+0x0/0x140 returns -2
[231201.406230] PM: Device 0000:00:19.0 failed to suspend async: error -2
[231201.406291] PM: Some devices failed to suspend, or early wake event detected

This looks like maybe this kernel bug:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198519

Which maybe is bug 1865570. In any case, this is not a systemd bug, it's a kernel bug, so I'm changing the affected pacakge to the kernel.
