See system logs and 'systemctl status > display-manager.service' for details. For jessie we ship a generator called systemd-default-display-manager-generator which is supposed to workaround some of the issues by not having all display managers in Debian provide a native .service and setup /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service. Since this is a Debian specific patch and an incomplete hack, we will get rid of that for stretch. Thus bumping the severity of this bug to important. I notice that sddm, the successor of kdm for plasma desktop, already supports the new scheme. You should consider copying the bits from there. Or if kdm is dead, maybe arrange for having it being transformed into a transitional package which pulls in sddm on upgrades.
