[Bug 859801] [NEW] Removing one of two installed display managers does not re-enable the remaining one

 

Public bug reported:

When having two display managers installed in Oneiric, and uninstalling the currently active one, the remaining one doesn't get enabled. Upon next boot, no display manager will be started despite there is one installed.
Tested with GDM and LightDM in both ways, the bug does always occur.
