Package: sddm Version: 0.14.0-4 Severity: serious Tags: security Justification: Policy 2.5
Dear Maintainer, apt-get dist-upgrade from jessie to stretch, followed by synaptic package manager installation of sddm-theme-elarun provided a splash screen with a blank block for user. Providing "root" as the user, with appropriate password did not result in a login. Double check of /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc found AllowRootLogin=true Inability to log in as root qualifies as "important" in accordance with the Debian policy manual section 2.5. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages sddm depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.61 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-18 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.6 ii libqt5core5a 5.7.1+dfsg-3+b1 ii libqt5dbus5 5.7.1+dfsg-3+b1 ii libqt5gui5 5.7.1+dfsg-3+b1 ii libqt5network5 5.7.1+dfsg-3+b1 ii libqt5qml5 5.7.1-2+b2 ii libqt5quick5 5.7.1-2+b2 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18 ii libsystemd0 232-25+deb9u1 ii libxcb-xkb1 1.12-1 ii libxcb1 1.12-1 ii qml-module-qtquick2 5.7.1-2+b2 ii x11-common 1:7.7+19 ii xserver-xephyr [xserver] 2:1.19.2-1+deb9u1 ii xserver-xorg [xserver] 1:7.7+19 Versions of packages sddm recommends: ii libpam-systemd 232-25+deb9u1 ii sddm-theme-debian-elarun [sddm-theme] 0.14.0-4 ii sddm-theme-debian-maui [sddm-theme] 0.14.0-4 Versions of packages sddm suggests: ii libpam-kwallet5 5.8.4-1 -- debconf information: sddm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/sddm * shared/default-x-display-manager: sddm
