[Bug 878751] Re: lightdm does not start without the package unity-greeter installed

 

"on the topic" =  "how should broken config, or config where the defined
greeter is not installed" should be handled, from bug #842194

"In this case lightdm should quit, and the failsafe X mechanisms should
kick in (i.e. fix your configuration)."

Title:
  lightdm does not start without the package unity-greeter installed

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  lightdm does not start without the package unity-greeter installed.

  Therefore, unity-greeter should probably be a dependency. Currently,
  it is just a 'Recommends', so default installations are not affected.
