I had stepped away for some time and the branch had become stale. The
diff is now considerably smaller, and Gnome and GDM are working with
elogind in both X11 and Wayland environments. I do plan to continue down
this path, but it is still slow going. I have yet to get the policy
stuff done for power management (can't shutdown or suspend from the
GUI), but it seems to be mostly functional at this point. The one
outstanding issue is Gnome policy agent looking for CK, but I expect
this is an artifact of the prior build method (possibly in
account-service rather than the pk agent itself). Though the branch has
been updated, if anybody is still interested in just the changes,
updated patch sets (since the changes are much smaller now) are located at:

and

No changes are required to the base LFS build, but please keep in mind
that I have not yet tested with latest SVN - I was working from a late
February build - but I don't foresee any major issues with the changes
that have gone in since.
Thanks for that DJ. I built the elogind version of the book and have a
couple of questions.
There are still a few packages that refer to consolekit: lxdm,
xfce4-session, lxsession, lxde-common, and gparted. Does elogind and
consolekit conflict?
In xorg-server, why is elogind recommended? Isn't it only needed if you
want to build gnome? Same question for polkit and network-manager and
pulseaudio and dbus.
Also, there are several package updates needed for LFS and I will be
doing all those later today except dbus and systemd. I do not think
that any of those will affect elogind.
