Package: kdm
Version: 4:4.11.9-1
Severity: minor
Dear maintainers,
My machine (updated debian testing) has only KDM as display manager, it
starts without problem after upgrading/trasition to systemd.
But in journald log I see this message
systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit display-manager.service,
ignoring: Unit display-manager.service failed to load: No such file or
directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status
display-manager.service' for details.
This bug can be related to another: #741511
If I install slim and choose KDM instead of slim as display manager this
messagge disappears (and KDM login works), but this is not a solution.
KDM must provide own display-manager.service file/soft-link.
This message shouldn't appear on a machine with only KDM display-manager
installed, and when I choose between multiple display-managers the
softlink /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service must be updated

kdm was last released with Debian 8 (jessie) in April 2015
and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
It has been superseded by sddm.
See https://bugs.debian.org/803635 for details on the removal.
I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
