wlogout doesn't work with runit right now

[rupansh]

System

• xuname:
  Void 5.8.18_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rFFFF
• package:
  affected package(s) including the version: wlogout-1.1.1_1

Expected behavior

Shutdown and reboot should work

Actual behavior

Shutdown and reboot expects systemctl
sh: 1: systemctl: not found
and thus doesnt work

Steps to reproduce the behavior

wlogout
click reboot/shutdown/hibernate

[rupansh]

Possible fix: Ship with our own default config that uses runit instead

Not exactly ideal, because the runit solutions would require sudo or doas (or even pkexec) to gain privileges, and that's very varied. I would suggest switching to depending on elogind and using loginctl <action>.

Well a unified solution for all users would be nice. Ideally we should avoid adding dependencies that arent used by all wayland users

[ericonr]

That's true.

@travankor thoughts?

How does this sound?

1. Switch the files in /etc/ to loginctl <action>
2. Don't add elogind as a dependency since xbps does not handle optional dependencies

Expected behavior
Shutdown and reboot should work

By the way, you can add custom commands to your dotfiles ~/.config/wlogout as per the manpage.

Not really ideal but yeah i couldnt come up with anything else. It should print a warning about it too
