Bug#801106: sddm-greeter fails to start

[Andy Wood <agw@bas.ac.uk>]

Package: sddm
Version: 0.12.0-4
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Reboot after installing nvidia 340.93-3 (latest testing version).
I had tried stopping sddm; rmmod nvidia; and restarting again ... got the sddm-greeter would
not start error and hoped a reboot would fix.

The only way I could get a working plasma5 was to install and use lightdm/lightdm-kde-greeter.
