Description Rex Dieter 2014-05-09 13:21:03 UTC
Subject says it all, I'd like to move lightdm packaging away from using alternatives for supporting multiple greeters, and support using snippets under /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ instead.

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2014-05-09 13:21:49 UTC
marking FutureFeature, just need to find time to implement this.

Help would be very welcome. :)
