Proposing as NTH for Fedora 18 alpha due to violation of the following F18 alpha release criterion [1] for a non-primary DE: Following on from the previous criterion, after firstboot is completed and on subsequent boots, a system installed according to any of the above criteria (or the appropriate Beta or Final criteria, when applying this criterion to those releases) must boot to a working graphical environment without unintended user intervention.

Discussed at 2012-09-05 NTH review meeting. Accepted as NTH per rationale in comment #3.
lightdm-1.3.3-2.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
*** Bug 857277 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
* Tue Sep 04 2012 Rex Dieter <rdieter> 1.3.3-2 - lightdm.service: After=+livesys-late.service (#853985) It is not working for me I am afraid, except for XFCE Live, so I am reopening. I think as Lennart said in bug 850775, the preset should not be relative to livesys-late.
As I wrote in the LXDM bug, both of those are separate issues. The yum case is different and may be intended, and we need to keep the livesys-late dep in the DM package because livesys-late is not a native systemd service, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846384 . Re-closing.
