Installing Precise from debootstrap, then kubuntu-desktop with 
APT::Install-Recommends "false"; then lightdm, lightdm-kde-greeter, xorg, 
linux-image-generic causes the similar problem with lightdm.
[+0.21s] DEBUG: Failed to load session file 
/usr/share/xgreeters/default.desktop: No such file or directory
In /usr/share/xgreeters I have lightdm-kde-greeter.desktop but the file 
/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf does not exist! I will have to create it manually and 
to write there something like:
"[SeatDefaults]
greeter-session=lightdm-gtk-greeter"
I think it should solve the problem.
It is interesting that there is no package owns the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf 
file (if is has been generated automatically). Why is it created when 
recommends installation is switched on and has not been created automatically 
during the installation without recommends? What is responsible for generating 
the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file?
