The message reported by the OP and the message I see is 'A stop job is
running for ...' where the ellipses stand in for the unit that systemd
is waiting for.  It seems pretty clear IMHO.  Actually debugging it is
harder since the system is not available during shutdown, but that's a
generic problem and the systemd docs do provide debugging tips.
