bug: Shouldn't programs.swaylock.package allow null?

[s0racat]

Are you following the right branch?

• My Nixpkgs and Home Manager versions are in sync

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Issue description

swaylock requires additional configuration for non NixOS and non-sway environments.
Shouldn't such things be left to NixOS and the system?

Thanks for reporting! I have filed #6095 to change this. In the meantime, you could set

package = pkgs.runCommandLocal "dummy" { } "mkdir $out";
