Raspberry Pi Connect • enable-linger no longer works on rpi-connect 2.1.0

enable-linger no longer works on rpi-connect 2.1.0
Followed documentation:
https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... -all-times

Imaged with Raspberry Pi Imager v1.8.5, options:
Device (Raspberry Pi 4) > Raspberry Pi OS Lite (64bit) > 32GB micro sdcard

cat /etc/os-release
VERSION_ID="12"
VERSION="12 (bookworm)"

cat /etc/debian_version
12.7

sudo apt install rpi-connect-lite
rpi-connect version
rpi-connect 1.4.0 (revision 8849f708fe31ee876bb382bc086aad339d73ff56) [arm64]

systemctl --user start rpi-connect.service (command updated to "rpi-connect on" on 2.x)
loginctl enable-linger (without this rpi-connect does not start after reboot and ssh login is required)
sudo reboot

When OS boots, without ssh login, Raspberry Pi Connect is started and available to connect
Also have some Pis with older version, also working:
rpi-connect 1.3.3 (revision dd9f4e627f8e814f1a6f661d798e70e601a7be81) [arm64]

Once upgraded, Raspberry Pi Connect does not start automatically after reboot and ssh is required to start it.
loginctl enable-linger no longer works. I tested upgrade of a working config as well as fresh image, upgrade then rpi-connect-lite install and config.

apt upgrade
cat /etc/debian_version
12.8
rpi-connect version
rpi-connect 2.1.0 (revision 04b828e0aa7964e81087bbebada0e68fe2a9c387) [arm64]


Is this a bug or am I missing something? Maybe the guide is not up to date?
