Package: lightdm Version: 1.18.3-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Actually these are two separate issues (which I think are packaging-related). I was not sure should I report them against razorqt-lightdm-greeter package or against lightdm package so I report these here. - I use razorqt-lightdm-greeter (as lightdm-kde-greeter is no more available) but still must install lighdtm-gtk-greeter as dependency for lighdm. I believe razorqt-lighdm-greeter should be alternative dependency for lighdm, and not need lighdm-gtk-greeter installed. - Once i installed razorqt-lighdm-greeter package it did not update the alternative in update-alternatives. So I had to manually install razorqt greeter alternative via update-alternatives --install /usr/share/xgreeters/lightdm-greeter.desktop lightdm-greeter /usr/share/xgreeters/lightdm-razor-greeter.desktop 30 and subsequently manually reconfigure: update-alternatives --config lightdm-greeter which switched to the desired razorqt-lighdtm-greeter. I believe installing razorqt-lightdm-greeter should automatically add the razorqt greeter alternative and switch to it.
