Elogind is missing the man page for elogind-inhibit: this is just a copy of the systemd-inhibit manpage from systemd upstream, with 'systemd' replaced by 'elogind', where applicable.

+
+    <para><command>elogind-inhibit</command> may be used to execute a
+    program with a shutdown, sleep, or idle inhibitor lock taken. The
+    lock will be acquired before the specified command line is
+    executed and released afterwards.</para>
+
+    <para>Inhibitor locks may be used to block or delay system sleep
+    and shutdown requests from the user, as well as automatic idle
+    handling of the OS. This is useful to avoid system suspends while
+    an optical disc is being recorded, or similar operations that
+    should not be interrupted.</para>
