PLM is hard dependent on systemd.
That's the part that confuses me, because allegedly GNOME has a hard dependency on systemd yet in Gentoo you can install GNOME without having to install nor use sytemd. I hope this new KDE login manager can work the same or a similar way, though
gentoo uses elogind to emulate the systemd interfaces required by gnome
@refalo @mmmm #guix also follows this philosophy, but uses #shepherd as the root process.
That's unfortunate
