Package: lightdm
Version: 1.10.2-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
Hello,
I cannot start lightdm on my system with Intel graphics since yesterday's
upgrade from 1.10.1-3 to 1.10.2-1.
The service fails with:
root@nostromo:~# systemctl start lightdm
Job for lightdm.service failed. See 'systemctl status lightdm.service' and
'journalctl -xn' for details.
root@nostromo:~# systemctl status lightdm.service
● lightdm.service - Light Display Manager
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/lightdm.service; enabled)
Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since Fri 2014-09-19 16:31:21 CEST;

Process: 4253 ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c [ $(cat
/etc/X11/default-display-manager 2/dev/null) = /usr/sbin/lightdm ]
(code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
Sep 19 16:31:21 nostromo systemd[1]: Unit lightdm.service entered failed
state.
Sep 19 16:31:21 nostromo systemd[1]: lightdm.service start request repeated
too quickly, refusing to start.
Sep 19 16:31:21 nostromo systemd[1]: Failed to start Light Display Manager.
Sep 19 16:31:21 nostromo systemd[1]: Unit lightdm.service entered failed
state.
And invoking lightdm directly yields:
root@nostromo:~# lightdm
*** Error in `lightdm': double free or corruption (fasttop):
*** 0x7f51a9ea1850 ***
Aborted
Please let me know how can I help debugging.
I have installed xdm as a workaround and the system boots and works fine.
Thank you!
