 Dear all, 
 
 sorry for the delayed reply. I could indeed confirm that the problem is
 in the config file. Keeping the old config files breaks the upgrade,
 while installing the new ones has no problem.
 Here is the offending lightdm.conf:

A quick look doesn't reveal anything offending, but now that you
identified the cause you can “bisect” to find the offending line, I
guess.

 Same problem here which appeared after I did: apt-get upgrade today...

Try dist-upgrade, you might be missing some upgrades…
 
 $ dpkg -l |grep lightdm
 ii  liblightdm-gobject-1-0  1.10.2-1  
 amd64simple display manager (gobject library)
 ii  lightdm 1.10.2-1  
 amd64simple display manager
 ii  lightdm-gtk-greeter 1.8.5-1   
 amd64simple display manager (GTK+ greeter)
 
 Downgrading helps, but re-upgrading does not.

Ok. Anything in the logs?

dist-upgrade wants to upgrade some other buggy pkgs which might be
critical for other applications like NM  dhcp.

Will resume work on this on Sunday, no time for it before.


Sincerely,
Gour
