I don't think a Debian package should actually read stuff from /usr/local (since it's installed with prefix beeing /usr), but in any case an admin shouldn't expect to. If the local admin wants to tune configuration, they should do it in /etc. Looking at the code, the directories (and the order) comes from https://github.com/Xubuntu/lightdm-gtk-greeter/blob/master/src/greeterconfiguration.c#L103 and uses g_get_system_config_dirs() (from GLib). Also see https://docs.gtk.org/glib/func.get_system_config_dirs.html and https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir/latest/ Regards, - -- Yves-Alexis -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEE8vi34Qgfo83x35gF3rYcyPpXRFsFAmpA4HQACgkQ3rYcyPpX RFtmegf/Z0IukVwQ4vV6XfxxWCaRuRiP/DSygK1czcFZ9bSCaDaZOpQ3cHuDk+XY qbApiRcvBUPTR5h5Uj8fetObjdfHUGV1bB5DGH3pPX8ahQFHkFTQECy0Xep4lUl9 zN3d+m1iZjyUC1EXadgJb2POaXOdkxhBj+uQqQLncl95dUCAN5+62JlQSYhJrq3E e4pf9xwjEpfXhpHD5VMK1fryZSfQ/HkLpyRf/h3HVQJo6MKS89PwoU7Y8ddy+ARV 0dkc2r5D1kIVVc34ceJzC2Hh8USsXvuVsbf307OpNXqzoDqM2Zh17/9EShFjgFQa DgQ8w/4CvS+fHTDb932nyzpHh1882Q== =Hw1b -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
