2023-06-04services: screen-locker-service-type: Configurable PAM and setuid.muradm
screen-locker-service-type by default does both define PAM entry and make program setuid binary. Normally both methods are mutually exclusive, if binary has setuid set it does not really needs PAM, otherway around also similar, if PAM is enabled binary should not relay on setuid. Recent swaylock package now compiled with PAM support. When PAM support is compiled in, swaylock rejects executing if binary is also setuid program. This change turns screen-locker-configuration from strict PAM AND setuid to more flexible PAM AND/OR setuid. Allowing swaylock to be configured properly while supporting other screen locker preferences. * gnu/services/xorg.scm (screen-locker-configuration): Switch from define-record-type to define-configuration. [using-pam?]: New field to control PAM entry existence. [using-setuid?]: New field to control setuid binary existence. (screen-locker-pam-services): Should not make unix-pam-service if using-pam? is set to #f. (screen-locker-setuid-programs): Should not make program setuid program if using-setuid? is set to #f. (screen-locker-generate-doc): Internal function to generate configuration documentation. (screen-locker-service): Adapt to new screen-locker-configuration. * gnu/services/desktop.scm (desktop-services-for-system): Adapt to new screen-locker-configuration. * doc/guix.texi: Reflect new changes to screen-locker-configuration.
