            Bug ID: 271628
           Summary: lightdm fails to start without lightdm-gtk-greeter
                    installed
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: gallatin@FreeBSD.org

I switched to lightdm because sddm became unreliable for me.  After install=
ing
lgihtdm, X failed to start.

Teasing error messages out of it via ktrace/kdump, I noticed:

       "[+0.01s] DEBUG: Adding default seat
       "[+0.01s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Loading properties from config section
Seat:*
       "[+0.01s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Starting
       "[+0.01s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Creating greeter session
       "[+0.01s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Failed to find session configuration
default
       "[+0.01s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Failed to create greeter session


It seems like we should either require lightdm-gtk-greeter be installed with
lightdm, or change the config in some way so that login works with just
lightdm.
