Dear Maintainer,

in /usr/bin/sxmo_power.sh the reboot and poweroff-commands are prepended
by "doas".

I installed "doas" and created a /etc/doas.conf with the following
content:

permit nopass mobian as root cmd reboot
permit nopass mobian as root cmd poweroff

(mobian is the user-name which I am using)

After that, I was able to reboot from within the menus (I didn't try
poweroff yet but have no doubt that it will also work).

I'm working on a fix for this bug here:

https://salsa.debian.org/DebianOnMobile-team/sxmo-utils/-/merge_requests/2

I'm not sure I like installing Sxmo's doas.conf as /etc/doas.conf.
Looking into alternatives, but it seems that Debian's doas doesn't
support a doas.d/ directory, as pointed out by Jochen Sprickerhof.

This patch (as submitted in the MR on salsa) is currently working for me
on my pinephonepro.
