[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#727725: ignores my choice of desktop environment

[joeyh at debian.org (Joey Hess)]

Package: lightdm
Version: 1.6.3-1
Severity: normal

I use xfce, but installed gnome too today. Lightdm defaulted to starting
gnome, which is fine, but even when I went up to the pull-down menu and
selected xfce, it still started gnome. I tried this 3 times so am pretty
sure I was really selecting xfce from the menu there.

In the end I had to use update-alternatives to force it to default to
xfce.
