[Touch-packages] [Bug 1540933] Re: /var/lib/lightdm not created by default
Hi. Yes, now the apt-get purge lightdm command does not remove the lightdm folder. But since I had this bug days ago, I had to recreate it manually and the people already affected need to recreate it manually, even if this will be last time. So the new update does not create it if the user exists but the folder no.
