Description

Layer-aware screen locking can keep older swaylock 1.5 behavior for dynamic compositor blurring workflows. This package builds swaylock from the 1.5 branch and conflicts with the regular swaylock package. It is security-sensitive session-locking software; PAM setup, unlock behavior, compositor layers, and fallback access should be tested before relying on it.
