sway-run.sh/sway.sh should be part of the plain sway package

[mcepl]

Every effort which wants to make sway part of the end user-friendly solution (be it openSUSEway or MicroOS-based efforts like Greybeard/Moldavite) ends up requiring a shell script, which sets up the environment for running sway, see for example openSUSEway’s sway-run.sh or Moldavite’s sway.sh.

Wouldn’t it be better to put such script into the plain sway package (and/or eventually send it upstream)?

I would say it should be a proper systemd service #3 ?

Absolutely @denisok . Making it a systemd service seems like the best option. Systemd has a lot of nice features :)

(*tongue-in-cheek* except when one is an idiot and breaks dbus user session, and doesn’t know how to fix it; which is my situation right now)
