Congratulations! One of the builds has completed. 🍾

You can install the built RPMs by following these steps:

• sudo yum install -y dnf-plugins-core on RHEL 8
• sudo dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core on Fedora
• dnf copr enable packit/sosreport-sos-3134
• And now you can install the packages.

Please note that the RPMs should be used only in a testing environment.

Converting to draft, since I forgot this runs as root, so we need to figure out a way to get to the session of a specific user

Could fetch /etc/xdg/monitors.xml too while at it.

This would likely require a change in sos_get_command_output(). We should be able to do this via a preexec_fn there, similar to (or rather, in extension of) how we handle chrooting. I don't think there are any concerns about allow a root-only utility to selectively de-escalate itself for this kind of collection, but I'd like to dig into that a little bit further.

We have a new attributes that can be used to grab as a user now, maybe this can help to improve this PR?
