Description :
 Waylock is a small screenlocker for Wayland compositors
 implementing ext-session-lock-v1. The ext-session-lock-v1
 protocol is significantly more robust than previous client-side
 Wayland screen locking approaches. Importantly, the screenlocker
 crashing does not cause the session to be unlocked.
 The The ext-session-lock-v1 protocol is a Wayland protocol
 extension developed by the same author of waylock.
 It is included in the official wayland-protocols repository.

 BTW, I am the packager of lxqt-wayland-session and I want to
 package one more independent screenlocker for the wayland.
 I will maintain this package in the future and I need a sponsor.
