I must've been mistaken then. So consolekit2 attempts to present a
logind like interface for those desktops that abandoned logind.

Ok that's no big deal I don't think.

I'd suggest making slim depend on consolekit2 and build it.

If your onto it now, go for it. Otherwise I might do it in the next day
or so as I need it in ceres for an install I'm doing.

Cheers,
