hi, so on the way to a fullblown 'wayland desktop', one of the missing bits is a graphical login manager. so here's two (completely untested for now) ports for https://git.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/greetd and https://git.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/gtkgreet.
from my understanding of the upstream docs, greetd is the daemon doing the auth (via security/openpam.. via pam-sys rust crate. yeah. no i wont write a rust crate to wrap bsdauth via libffi), and gtkgreet is launched by a wayland compositor to display the login window. gtkgreet talks to greetd over IPC, and upon successful authentication launches the selected wayland session. currently in the portstree there are desktop files available for gnome, gnome-classic, plasma, wayfire and sway in /usr/local/share/wayland-sessions/, soon xfce. There could be one for labwc. that's still wip since i havent actually tested it nor looked at writing rc scripts/patching the default configs, but someone interested at wayland desktops on OpenBSD can poke at it.
