Hello,

wlroots now uses libseat rather than elogind directly, and the
'-Dlogind_provider=elogind' configure flag was not letting it build
anymore.  Here is a fix for seatd to propagate elogind as a dependency
because it is required by its pkg-config, and for wlroots to remove
the flag and dependency to elogind.

Happy core-updates-frozen use,
Josselin

Good catch.

I was wondering if sway still works for you? Sometime between guix
v1.3.0 and now sway broke for me and I think it may have to do with
this update to sway requiring seatd. When I try run sway I get the
error:
