Description Niccolò Scatena 2019-01-29 16:30:40 UTC

Swaylock [1] is a screen locking utility for Wayland compositors, use mainly by Sway [2]. It was part of dev-libs/sway and now is a standalone project (see bug #675978). It is compatible with any Wayland compositor which implements the required Wayland protocols.

I'm going to open a PR on Github with the ebuild I've written for Swaylock. I'll also add myself as proxy maintainer.
