I'd do the same as I did for LXDE [3].
Sounds good, but I also like the possibility of the conditional for the abrt-desktop bit.

I'm pretty much with everyone else, I'll happily help with LightDM if there's any bits I might be able to lend a hand with. I think trying to fix up LXDM in time would be a tad advantageous of us and worst case scenario is we fall back to gdm for another release. -AdamM _______________________________________________ xfce mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce
