[Bug 1669818] [NEW] Ubuntu Budgie shows debian wallpaper due to greeter recommendation
Public bug reported:
Ubuntu Budgie, like Xubuntu uses lightdm-gtk-greeter as its default
greeter.
However, due to the recommendation of "debian-base" in debian/control,
we show all the debian wallapers in that package. Very confusing for
users.
Please can this be changed to a "Suggests:" instead?
Note - I originally asked this Q on Debian, but they declined saying its
a downstream issue
- https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=850328
I was going to attach a debdiff for the change, but the current source
for lightdm-gtk-greeter zesty does not compile under zesty due to
lightDM API changes. Was the package simply copied from Xenial? Which
begs the question - how on earth does the greeter actually work under
zesty if the API has changed!
