And what i should do when old bug appears again? Starting new thread with same issue will also break rules...

For example KDE as standard uses the poweroff command "/sbin/shutdown -h -P now". I changed this to "/usr/bin/systemctl poweroff" and it works fine.
I do not have systemd-sysvcompat, sysvinit, sysvinit-tools of initscripts installed.
I may of course be wrong, but I will keep this thread updated with anything that I find out.

I, too, have seen a couple of systemd updates--and the only thing that's changed is the output messages before it hangs. I'm using XFCE, so it certainly doesn't involve any KDE issues for me. :-(

In my case it's the same box--two different arch partitions--so the hardware is identical...

What surprises me is that you have the same issue on 2 computers... well, aside from making sure you're not using halt rather than poweroff (particularly when abstracted through guis), I don't have any other suggestions. I hope you get it fixed.

thats intended. "halt" does exactly what it's supposed to do - halt the system. The only reason that I can think of why you might use this is to debug the shutdown process.
If you want the machine to power off, use poweroff (duh!).
