Title:
  [split] unity8-greeter doesn't run on desktop configurations

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Installing unity8-greeter, from the split greeter silo, on an
  unity8-mir desktop configuration leads to a non working lightdm

  * installing unity8-greeter leads to an empty screen with a cursor
  (looking like a Mir one), which runs for some seconds and do what
  looks like a respawn

  -> editing the unity8-greeter-wrapper to set the qpa to mirclient
  corrected the respawn issue but giving an empty screen still

  * install ubuntu-touch-session gives a working greeter but unlocking
  doesn't start the session

  * GreeterShell.qml has an issue and does unlock only in when autologin
  is enabled, editing that makes unlock dismiss the greeter

  but the session still doesn't start, unlocking the greeter gives a
  screen looking like the phone one ... that needs extra debugging
