Plymouth is an application that runs very early in the boot process and that provides a graphical boot animation while the boot process happens in the background. You are not supposed to install this on your own, it is only useful with system integration.

This package contains a number of commandline utilities for use inside Flatpak sandboxes and other containers, like guix shell --container. They work by talking to portals. Currently, there is flatpak-spawn for running commands in sandboxes as well as xdg-open and xdg-email, which are compatible with the well-known scripts of the same name.

fprintd is a D-Bus daemon that offers functionality of libfprint, a library to access fingerprint readers, over the D-Bus interprocess communication bus. This daemon layer above libfprint solves problems related to applications simultaneously competing for fingerprint readers.

Waypipe is a proxy for Wayland clients, with the aim of supporting behavior like ssh -X.

The shared-mime-info package contains the core database of common types and the update-mime-database command used to extend it. It requires glib2 to be installed for building the update command.
