I've spent several hours to find what was wrong with lightdm, and
eventually found the culprit earlier today: just the fact that the
systemd package was installed! So, yes, systemd currently breaks
things, even if it is not used (I don't use GNOME itself, sometimes
some GNOME apps that work without the GNOME environment, so that
in any case systemd is completely useless for me).
