I'm getting a dependency error which cannot be addressed unless the source packages are reconciled and re-released:

Plus this new dinit-user-spawn messes all up.

Remove the branding package.
I added a default rc.local & rc.shutdown since they were in the backup array.

Nope it does not.
If you are one of the people who refuse dbus, this might be a problem on your end.
All user-spawn does is install the binary and the associated service enabled by hook.
No actual user services are started or enabled, that is user business, eg dbus .

I have no problems with dbus, elogind, etc. I'm not using login managers though.
As i said in another subject - it takes forever to load dinit-user-spawn service if using auto startx from .profile.
And what's the reasoning behind using it by default anyway?

Thats not the problem of a new dependency installed frankly.
Do you run a dbus  user service?

The only unknown is how turnstile and dinit-user-spawn behave together.
If in doubt, remove and disable turnstile.

I don't have to justify development decisions, but reasoning is that dinit-user-spawn fills a gap required for increasingly desktop related user services .
It is much better than turnstile, since low level  and it does precisely what it is supposed to do, limited scope well done.
Turnstile has a different scope, more aiming to replace logind, and it is experimental and not included in a default artix install.

Yes, I run dbus user service and don't use turnstile.

When I manualy startx from tty dinit-user-spawn works fine. It loads the service itself as well as user service instances (dbus, mpd, transmission). But it takes several minutes to load the service with startx from .bash_profile. That's the problem.
I've tested turnstile the same way - no problems.

A possible problem I see, user-spawn isn't a direct replacement of turnstile.
Both coexisting might lead to unknown side effects, since turnstile does the user service thingy too.
I just wasn't gonna hard block turnstile.

Chiming in to say that I've also had problems following the dinit upgrade. First was on my desktop similar to OP where the upgrade would throw an error, I rm'd rc.local and I could continue with the upgrade.

Now on my laptop, after upgrading dinit, it wouldn't boot into the system because the rclocal service was missing all of a sudden. I also solved this by just manually creating the service:
Code: (/usr/lib/dinit.d/rclocal) [Select]
type = scripted
command = /usr/lib/dinit/rclocal
depends-on = local.target
Hopefully this helps others.

I don't use turnstile at all, I've just tested these 2 utils separately from each other.

This worked for me, thanks.

Is there going to be a release of a new set of packages that will include all the correct dependencies without requiring fiddling with files ?
I'm asking because I have not yet run the update - I need to be sure I will not break the system.
If it is not possible to fix all dependencies by pushing new packages, at least can we have a clear procedure (i.e. install X, remove Y, modify Z) ?

Thank you for your efforts !

I had this recently, just find the service file that uses that line (waits-for = loginready) and either uncomment or remove and it should all work fine. For me it was the mullvad-daemon service file in /etc/dinit.d
