Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm also running into trouble. Specifically with patch 5 of 7. The not so
helpful log says:

  (repl-version 0 1 1)
  Generating package cache for 
'/gnu/store/f51aqcng42a9v9cd50i0a4c8ypyyrbz0-profile'...
  (exception unbound-variable (value #f) (value "Unbound variable: ~S") (value 
(seatd)) (value #f))


The only patch I'm actually interested in is [PATCH v8 6/7], witch does work on
my system.

Any chance we can cherry pick? :)


If anyone is willing to work with me on this I could provide the patches so
that they can be applied to master without conflicts and test if they can be
built.

That would allow us to merge the patches that can stand on themselves and
later we can update seatd in a separate step.

What do you think?
