[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#749243: lightdm: Could not create user data directory /var/lib/lightdm-data/lightdm



Package: lightdm
Version: 1.10.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #749243

I had the same problem, so I simply created the directory, with the
same ownership and permissions as /var/lib/lightdm. Now I don't get
the warning anymore, and the following directory structure is there
while I am logged in:

root at lenovo:~# ls -lRa /var/lib/lightdm-data*
/var/lib/lightdm-data:
total 16
drwxr-x---  4 lightdm lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 .
drwxr-xr-x 63 root    root    4096 Oct  7 07:53 ..
drwxrwx---  2 lightdm lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 lightdm
drwxrwx---  2 tmac    lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 tmac

/var/lib/lightdm-data/lightdm:
total 8
drwxrwx--- 2 lightdm lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 .
drwxr-x--- 4 lightdm lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 ..

/var/lib/lightdm-data/tmac:
total 8
drwxrwx--- 2 tmac    lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 .
drwxr-x--- 4 lightdm lightdm 4096 Oct  7  2014 ..

It has created empty directories "lightdm" and "tmac" (my user name)
within /var/lib/lightdm-data

Best regards
