Today it's again libinput failure;) It seems there is some communication
between sway and consolekit2: https://pastebin.com/5ARuVNQT

To make sure libinput backend is not loaded I set WLR_BACKENDS to "drm".
Here is the output of sway -dV: https://pastebin.com/Z14QJwV4.
You can see the following line at the beginning of this log:
> 2019-10-06 07:51:22 - [backend/session/consolekit2.c:833] Successfully
loaded consolekit2 session
But mouse and keyboard do not work when sway is started.

Consolekit is built with your patches. Can I verify that is's working
correctly?
