Details

Description:
At build time SDDM sets MaximumUid to the value of UID_MAX from /etc/login.defs. UID_MAX doesn't account for users managed by systemd-homed with UIDs 60001–60513 (see https://systemd.io/UIDS-GIDS/ ).
Please build the package with -DUID_MAX=60513 so that SDDM would show systemd-homed users by default, without requiring the user to change the configuration manually ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SDDM#One_or_more_users_do_not_show_up_on_the_greeter ).


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any
sddm 0.19.0-6


Steps to reproduce:
Create a user with homectl.
Observe that SDDM does not show it in the user list.
This task depends upon
