Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 56ba3c78ae build-sys: create Makefile-man.am automatically
man rules were repeating the same information in too many places,
which was error prone. Those rules can be easily generated from .xml
files. For efficiency and because python is not a required dependency,
Makefile-man.am is only regenerated when requested with

  make update-man-list

If no metadata in man/*.xml changed, this file should not change. So
only when a new man page or a new alias is added, this file should
show up in 'git diff'. The change should then be committed.

If the support for building from git without python was dropped, we
could drop Makefile-man.am from version control. This would also
increase the partial build time (since more stuff would be rebuild
whenever sources in man/*.xml would be modified), so it would probably
wouldn't be worth it.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_get_seats()</function> may be used
to determine all currently available local
seats. Returns a NULL terminated array of seat
identifiers. The returned array and all strings it
references need to be freed with the libc
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
call after use. Note that instead of an empty array
NULL may be returned and should be considered
equivalent to an empty array.</para>
<para>Similar, <function>sd_get_sessions()</function> may
be used to determine all current login sessions.</para>
<para>Similar, <function>sd_get_uids()</function> may
be used to determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions.</para>
<para>Note that the returned lists are not sorted and in an undefined order.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success <function>sd_get_seats()</function>,
<function>sd_get_sessions()</function> and
<function>sd_get_uids()</function> return the number
of entries in the arrays. On failure, these calls
return a negative errno-style error code.</para>
