LGTM, I don't see any real reason not to merge this. This is a breaking change but I assume that calling swaybg directly is very uncommon and resulting errors should be both easy to notice and resolve. Not sure why we didn't discuss patching Sway in #60434 though.

My sway can't find swaybg anymore, and I expect its from this change. Any ideas why this could be happening?

@alexarice Are you using any overlays?

I'm using the nixpkgs-wayland overlay

Yeah. What's happening is it overrides the sway-unwrapped attribute here, but doesn't override the wrapper. Since the wrapper no longer puts swaybg in its $PATH, the nixpkgs-wayland version cannot find it.

Will make an issue there, thanks for the help
