Gentoo doesn't use systemd. `libelogind` or `basu` implement some aspects of systemd, so we use that on Gentoo (or rather when `libsystemd` is not available but `libelogind` or `basu` is). Patch from https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=8850566. See also https://community.software.sil.org/t/keyman-for-gentoo-linux/9615. Cherry-pick-of: #12889 |

keyman-system-service
A DBus system service that allows to access /dev/input/* devices
to toggle capslock and perform other keyboard related actions. This is
required when running under Wayland, but also used with X11.

Notes
-
If we need to limit access to the interface to only Keyman, we can use polkit which allows to add a rule with an action that checks for the program.
