9 I just tried it and it works. :-)

11 With elogind running as a boot service, sddm launches with the Shutdown/Reboot
12 buttons shown and they work as expected. However, as I do not have a /usr/
13 bin/loginctl, all I can assume is irrespective of the HaltCommand path
14 specified in the default sddm config, when launched sddm searches all paths
15 and eventually finds /bin/loginctl, which it runs when a button is pressed.

17 As we've established with no -elogind +consolekit the commands specified in
18 the default sddm config file are different. Also, with consolekit being a
19 default rc service, it is running at the time sddm is launched.

21 Thank you all for your responses.
