** Description changed:

  TEST CASE:
  1. install gdm and lightdm
  2. Set gdm as default greeter
-   $ dpkg-reconfigure gdm
-   and select dpkg
+   $ dpkg-reconfigure gdm
+   and select gdm
  3. Remove gdm
-   $ apt-get remove --purge gdm
+   $ apt-get remove --purge gdm
  
  Result:
  gdm prerm script failed with exit status 10, then debconf prompt for the default display manager

  debconf prompt is shown _before_ removing gdm and gdm removal only fails if there is no other choice than gdm
