Danny, all,

I strongly suspect that it still won't work.  According to
<https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fprint>, the 'pam_fprintd.so'
module needs to be added to the PAM configuration.

That is only required if not using gdm. I think since we force gdm now it
should work as-is.

What do you mean?  We don't force GDM on anyone.

I'm still unable to use fprintd at all (I think, I've never used it before):

 ~ λ fprintd-enroll nckx
 Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0
 failed to claim device: Not Authorized:
   GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed:
   Action net.reactivated.fprint.device.enroll is not registered
 ~ λ sudo fprintd-enroll nckx
 Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0
 failed to claim device: Not Authorized:
   GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed:
Action net.reactivated.fprint.device.setusername is not registered

I'm not using GDM.

Kind regards,

T G-R
