[Bug 819177] Re: should handle the default session not being available
This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.0.0-0ubuntu1
---------------
lightdm (1.0.0-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
[ Steve Langasek ]
* don't start on graphics-device-added; reintroducing this reverted the fix
for bug #615549 from maverick without explanation.
* clean up the completely illegible start rule for debian/lightdm.upstart,
killing off the unnecessary parentheses
* debian/lightdm.upstart: when lightdm is shut down by a runlevel call,
emit an upstart event that can be caught by plymouth so it can
distinguish between the DM shutting down for a runlevel change vs. other
causes. LP: #854329.
[ Robert Ancell ]
* New upstream release.
[ 0.9.8 ]
- GetSeatForCookie and GetSessionForCookie are now deprecated. They
remain for now but use the XDG_SEAT_PATH and XDG_SESSION_PATH
environment variables instead.
- Change log filenames to be unique across different display types.
- Fix up script hooks, add regression tests for them
- Complete removal of X code from the core of LightDM, so it can better
support various display types
- Add ability to set the language of a user from the greeter (LP: #803858)
- Set LANG variable based on the user language
- Add language selector into GTK greeter (disabled by default)
- Allow TCP/IP connections if xserver-allow-tcp is true
- Allow lightdm --version to be run as non-root
- Automatically respond to PAM messages without prompts (LP: #783598)
- Create 'AddLocalXSeat' D-Bus method, and require root to use 'AddSeat'
- Fix multi-seat configuration picking the same display number (LP: #851362)
- Use correct D-Bus and power interface in liblightdm-qt (LP: #852803)
- Run pam_setcred inside the session process so pam_group works
(LP: #851347)
- Make sure one session is always selected in the GTK greeter (LP: #819177)
[ 1.0.0 ]
- Explicitly grab keyboard focus in GTK greeter
- Fix removed power and a11y menu items in GTK greeter
- Put system binary directory into path when running in test mode
(LP: #860003)
- Call pam_getenvlist after pam_setcred
[ Lionel Le Folgoc ]
* Make the gtk greeter easily themable by derivatives: (LP: #845549)
- rename lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf to lightdm-gtk-greeter-ubuntu.conf,
and handle the move in maintainer scripts.
- manage /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf with update-alternatives,
by default it uses /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter-ubuntu.conf with a
very low priority.
* debian/control: lightdm-gtk-greeter provides lightdm-gtk-greeter-config.

Bug description:
Hey,
there is no code right now for handling non-existing session. In
Debian we set user-session=xfce by default, but some people might use
it without Xfce installed. In that case, LightDM shows a blank item in
the session menu. If the user logs in, it still tries to start the
session, fails and goes back to the greeter.
It's related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/818864 but not
exactly the same thing.
