What's the reason for the switch?
Fewer dependencies (we include only the sd-bus library without the whole
of elogind), and it means eventually desktop users won't ever need elogind to even exist in their store. (I think this is the reason. I'm not certain, and there may be something more important, like some incompatibility with
seatd.)

That's interesting but sounds very non-specific to xdg-desktop-portal-wlr; I think this would be better to propose on guix-devel@ to switch elogind->basu for _all_ dependents, not only xdg-desktop-portal-wlr -- the latter would increate the closure, not reduce it, because other installed packages would still use elogind.

Additionally, the reason should have been mentioned in the commit message.

Greetings,
Maxime.
