No, the .override file will be preserved across upgrades. You can
ship/provision that package in a file.
Alternatively you can modify the settings for the lightdm user directly like so:
$ sudo -i
$ xhost +SI:localuser:lightdm
$ su lightdm -s /bin/bash
$ gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter

Hi Robert,
Thanks! In which Ubuntu version will this be implemented? 14.04? We're
currently using 12.04.
Two more questions. The dir /usr/share will be overwritten with
software upgrades right? Is there also a static place to put these
settings? For example:
** Changed in: unity-greeter (Ubuntu)
Status: New = Triaged
** Changed in: unity-greeter (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided = Wishlist

To manage notifications about this bug go
lp:~robert-ancell/unity-greeter/show-hostname contains a proposed fix
for this. To disable the hostname do:
$ sudoedit /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/50_unity-greeter.gschema.override
and set to:
[com.canonical.unity-greeter]
show-hostname = false
$ sudo glib-compile-schemas
This is in the greeter right? Reassigning..
