What else would be needed aside from one line. I discovered that
loginctl allows regular users to shutdown the system. I can't have
that. Such behavior does an end around the core unix security. I tried
to remove elongd and it said X was a dependendcy.

Its been nearly a decade since I tore through gentoo. Its not
relaistic. What I need is a distro that is systemd free, and new
options are always looked at.
things look like they will get worse with wayland barking at the door.
for the momemnt I chmod 0000 loginctl, but the underlining design flaw
continues of giving root access to normal users though polykit etc
continues.

Maybe I can compile an x package that doesn't hook into councilkit et
