Public bug reported:
while debugging a different bug in lightdm, I noticed that the plymouth-
stop job has a race condition. If rc RUNLEVEL=2 is emitted at boot
before 'starting lightdm' (etc), a subsequent 'starting lightdm' will
not block on the plymouth-stop job to complete, possibly causing the DM
to start up before plymouth has been stopped. For a DM that doesn't
properly integrate with plymouth, this could cause problems with VTs.
