Screenshot showing red background in infobar

When using lightdm-gtk-greeter with PAM, the infobar used to display PAM messages (e.g., an S/Key challenge) is displayed with a red background, misleadingly indicating an error.

See attached screenshot. (I haven't touched any of the /etc/lightdm/ configuration files.)

Patch for src/lightdm-gtk-greeter.c

Presumably, message type GTK_MESSAGE_INFO should be used instead of GTK_MESSAGE_ERROR. (It's an _info_ bar, after all. ;-)

Attached patch makes the info bar appear with less obtrusive background.

Thanks for the patch. Would you like to submit it upstream as well?

This has been fixed upstream some time ago. Closing.
