> Yves-Alexis, what is wrong with accountsservice? It's a freedesktop
prokject with desktop specific depends. Not that lightdm fallbacks to
standard methods and don't hard depends on it
Well, the problem is that AccountsService is not really suited for
network logins since it stores the session and language selection to
/var/lib/AccountsService/users which is a local directory whereas saving
it to ${HOME}/.dmrc makes the settings available on any login computer.
Currently, lightdm is completely broken when it comes to loading the
last session on a network, even with version 1.4.0. It simply doesn't
work.
Honestly, it's frustrating that many upstream developers of desktop
components like the display manager always seem to completely ignore
everything which goes beyond single-user or single-machine systems.
Cheers,
Adrian
