Bug#846278: Fix or workaround for Debian #846278



I don't have l3lock. If I try to purge light-locker, Lubuntu tries to uninstall XFCE and install Gnome in its place :(

Is there a bug filed with Intel?

Hi Brian,

what I did to fix the problem was "apt-get purge light-locker".

There might be one other aspect important in the context of this bug
report: I have and have had i3lock handle the screen locking. It could be
that the problems that I saw had also to do with the fact that
light-locker and i3lock were interfering with each other in trying to lock
the screen:

     $ cat /etc/systemd/system/i3lock.service
     [Unit]
     Description=i3lock
     Before=sleep.target

     [Service]
     User=MY_USER_NAME_HERE
     Type=forking
     Environment=DISPLAY=:0
     ExecStart=/usr/bin/i3lock

     [Install]
     WantedBy=sleep.target
     #systemctl enable i3lock.service

Is your system configured similarily?
