Dear Maintainers, hi. First of all, thanks for maintaining weston in Debian. Weston 10 is using the default build options set by upstream plus screenshare and systemd features enabled via a debian/rules override of dh_auto_configure. This basically covers the major cases for PCs and servers, but for embedded systems and people not wanting to use systemd (and logind), this is a problem. Weston has support for using libseat for seat management/launching weston via the launcher-libseat option (it's turned off by default in meson_options.txt), but weston 11 libseat launcher became the default [1] and recently (weston 12) the libseat launcher has become the one and only official launcher supported by upstream weston [2]. Taking this into consideration and the outcome of Init systems and systemd GR [3], I'd like to check with you the possibility of enabling the support for libseat launcher in stable via a proposed-updates upload to bookworm. I did rebuild bookworm's version with the option enabled and tested it a bit in my notebook. I've also used abi-compliance-checker to check if this could have caused any ABI change in libweston and it didn't. I'll provide the debdiff output for you to check. Also, should you answer positively, I can do a more exhaustive testing and check if we don't introduce any errors when running with elogind and systemd-logind.

I don't think this system info is going to help since I've built in bookworm chroot. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.6.15-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
