Andrew,

Thanks for this. You have been folowwing this area more closely than me.

I believe the original impetus to remove libsystemd linkage from procps
was to reduce libsystemd infiltration into 'core' utilities.

Devuan systems without elogind are viable (I use sway/seatd as my daily
driver) so just adding elogind support to procps isn't a universal
solution.

Do you have a suggestion or idea as to a way forward?

Mark
