I'm launching exec steam -bigpicture from .xinitrc and attempting to use the shutdown or reboot options in the exit menu produce the following;

Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit was not provided by any .service files

ArchLinux 3.12.0-1-ARCH 64
systemd 208

This issue is not limited to steam when launching an X session without a session manager.

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.login1 /org/freedesktop/login1 org.freedesktop.login1.Manager.PowerOff boolean:true

The above call works, The freedesktop.org ConsoleKit project is deprecated.
