[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#784627: lightdm-gtk-greeter: the clock no longer appears

[celeonar at gmail.com (Cesare Leonardi)]

Package: lightdm-gtk-greeter
Version: 2.0.0-2
Followup-For: Bug #784627

I confirm what reported by Vincent.
As him, i've upgraded from 1.8.5-2 to 2.0.0-2 and since then the clock
is not displayed anymore.

It's the same if i comment my customized "clock-format" and leave only
"show-clock=true".

Same /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log as Vincent, with the added
following warning due to suggested accountservice package not
installed:
** (lightdm-gtk-greeter:1123): WARNING **: Error getting user list from org.freedesktop.Accounts: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Accounts was not provided by any .service files
