On a ROCK64 system-on-chip, herd start elogind fails. This is guix
commit 87624540b486d710749ad00ef5aa427a9e5c1d0c after the
core-updates-frozen merge. This breaks sway for me, which I start
from the Linux console.
But if I
Revert "gnu: elogind: Update to 246.10."
This reverts commit a0bf66ab9432675f86095d9a2533d7b80f58a668.
then it is working again.
(Actually on reconfigure in order to build python-dbusmock I also need
to add #:tests? #f to python-dbusmock.)
I shall try out if updating to
commit 488f1c589df00e802163af534294d93372e5c025
services: dbus: Wait 1 minute for elogind to get ready.
helps, but the failure is immediate, so that is probably unrelated.
If it does not help, I will bisect the elogind versions.
Attached is my config. (Note that the setup is unusual; to boot, I
copy all files referenced in /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf from
/gnu/store to /boot/gnu/store.)

Florian

elogind commit 7db52c01ed07f543f8272ea9a726cb542e771595 is the first
elogind version that does not launch, but it is too entangled to
simply revert. I will take another look tomorrow.

I have not yet tried because the check phase of the guix package had failed.

This was a dead end. With 7db52c01ed07f543f8272ea9a726cb542e771595,
elogind did actually launch but shepherd did not recognize it. The
attached patch was required, but it does not make a difference for
starting sway. (Neither is it an alternative fix for
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/52051>.)
Elogind’s entire v246-stable branch does not run sway anymore on
ROCK64. I don’t think bisecting is a good way to find the cause.
The sway errors are:
00:00:00.013 [ERROR] [wlr] [libseat] [libseat/backend/seatd.c:78] Could not connect to socket /run/seatd.sock: No such file or directory
00:00:00.031 [ERROR] [wlr] [libseat] [libseat/backend/logind.c:267] Could not activate session: Action org.freedesktop.login1.chvt is not registered
00:00:00.031 [ERROR] [wlr] [libseat] [libseat/libseat.c:73] No backend was able to open a seat
00:00:00.031 [ERROR] [wlr] [backend/session/session.c:84] Unable to create seat: Function not implemented
00:00:00.031 [ERROR] [wlr] [backend/session/session.c:218] Failed to load session backend
00:00:00.031 [ERROR] [wlr] [backend/backend.c:353] Failed to start a DRM session
00:00:00.031 [ERROR] [sway/server.c:53] Unable to create backend
The first line seems harmless and is also printed on old elogind
before sway starts.
I will try to actually understand what is happening.

Florian

Reverting elogind commit 150d7b05074f16db70a2872765edbb39066d80af
makes sway start again. See attached patch. We could graft elogind
or put it on core-updates, but I have not yet properly tested nor
understood. I will test and try understanding now.

Closing, because:
* muradm added seatd-service-type and using (service
seatd-service-type) in lieu of (elogind-service) works. It looks
like a better (?) workaround than making elogind work.
* I have not understood and do not plan to debug further. Maybe that
I can no longer start sway by typing sway in a virtual terminal is
even a deliberate change in logind, but then again I don’t see it on
x86_64.

Just FTR, seatd is a light alternative to the seat management part of
elogind, but does not replace all of its functionality! There are a
couple of things that rely on (e)logind-specific functionality, such as
polkit (so by extension NetworkManager or UDisks for example). It's a
good alternative, but better be aware of its shortcomings. For a
minimal Sway-based desktop it'll work well though :)
Best,
