Bug#931335: lightdm: default configuration fails to start
Package: lightdm
Version: 1.26.0-4
Severity: important
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
The package currently shipping fails to work with the stock configuration:
Upon first run, it complains about a missing '/var/lib/lightdm/data' and exits.
Manually creating the directory and giving it lightdm:lightdm ownership does not fix the issue.
As far as I can tell, the stock configuration doesn't specify which greeter to use, and that is what makes lightdm exit.
