Title:
  Ubuntu Budgie shows Debian wallpaper due to greeter recommendation

Status in lightdm-gtk-greeter package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lightdm-gtk-greeter package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Budgie, like Xubuntu, uses lightdm-gtk-greeter as its default
  greeter.

  However, due to the recommendation of desktop-base in debian/control,
  we show all the Debian wallpapers in that package. Very confusing for
  users.

  Please can this be changed to "Suggests:" instead?

  I originally asked this on Debian, but they declined saying its a
  downstream issue.

  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? How on
  earth does the greeter actually work under Zesty if the API has
  changed!
