Hello maintainers of lightdm, Luca, After some debugging, I've found out why the Lomiri desktop is unable to boot on a fresh install: the lightdm user is locked. I've seen the issue happening in openQA on fresh installations, but did not spend time on finding the cause until now. If a Debian system is installed with 1.33.1-1, the user lightdm is created without a lock, using the postinst script. If a Debian system is installed with 1.33.1-3, the user lightdm is created with a lock, using the systemd-sysuser strategy. Upon upgrades the lightdm user stays unmodified, the issue is therefore seen only on fresh installations. The proposed change from 'u!' to 'u' restores the original behaviour (and allows the user to log in with the Lomiri desktop) With kind regards, Roland Clobus Details: * I've installed a system with a netinst image from 2026-09-01 * I've used snapshot.debian.org to have a fresh installation with 2026-09-19T00:00:00Z and 2026-09-20T00:00:00Z
