Bug Description

elogind is a fork of systemd's logind to allow it to be used on systems that don't use systemd.

Since recent Ubuntu versions only support systemd and we have blacklisted other init alternatives (like openrc), maybe we want to blacklist elogind too?

sway has a build-dependency on libelogind-dev (>= 239). What should be done with that package?

sway's build-depends is libsystemd-dev (>= 239) | libelogind-dev (>= 239), so it does not require elogind, and the packages are (hence) not build with it, as can be seen in the build log; but it would allow building on systemd-less system, but that's irrelevant for us.
