There was a problem hiding this comment.
It seems that it brings in a total of two other dependencies (winsafe and env_home). This seems reasonable, although obviously the former is unneeded.

This updates cosmic-greeter to use the PATH to search for binaries such as orca and coreutils's env, and also logs when they could not be found rather than failing when the command is attempted to be run. It also adds a command for packagers to be able to validate that they've correctly packaged cosmic-greeter with its dependencies.
CC @HeitorAugustoLN, will require a minor change to the nixpkgs drv if merged (removing the
postPatchand adding the deps to the PATH, and addingcosmic-greeter --check-depstocheckPhase)
