   To quote the Gentoo wiki...   
     "elogind is the systemd project's logind,   
     extracted to a standalone package. It's   
     designed for users who prefer a non-systemd   
     init system, but still want to use popular   
     software such as KDE/Wayland or GNOME that   
     otherwise hard-depends on systemd."   
      
   I think the key phrase here is "to use popular   
     software such as KDE/Wayland ... that   
     otherwise hard-depends on systemd."   
      
   Apparently, if you want KDE, you must have   
   elogind.
