first draft lightdm-1.1.1.ebuild

As of 1.1.1, the greeters are now split out into separate projects, and as far as I can tell, there is no qt4 greeter for the new version yet.  I've moved the gtk greeter stuff into a new ebuild.

lightdm-gtk-greeter-1.1.1-missing-vars.patch

Minor problem with src/Makefile.am makes it look for important files under / instead of /usr/share/lightdm-gtk-greeter, found fix here:

Patch attached (already applied by the lightdm-gtk-greeter-1.1.1.ebuild above)

Hmm they changed far too much in the new version. I wonder if I should wait for a qt4 greeter to come out before bumping this ebuild

[Comment 5 teidakankan 2012-02-16 03:48:35 UTC]

Well they are up to 1.1.3.  Here are the latest changes:

Overview of changes in lightdm 1.1.3

    * Actually return the system default keyboard layout, not just 'us'
    * Add keyboard layout variants to list of keyboard layouts
    * Check accountsservice as well as .dmrc for users' layouts
    * Add lightdm_user_get_layouts() to query the configured list of layouts
      on a per-user basis
    * Add Lock D-Bus method that locks the seat and provides a hint to the
      greeter to be in lock mode.
    * Automatically lock sessions when switching away from them
    * Add a has-messages property to liblightdm
    * Add regression tests for PAM modules changing usernames
    * Don't use g_key_file_unref, it requires glib 2.32

Overview of changes in lightdm 1.1.2

    * Add regression tests for getting the user language and layout
    * Stop accidentally distributing libsystem
    * Fix introspection bindings not containing any methods
    * lightdm-set-defaults can now set the autologin user
    * Add Python greeter regression tests (representative of all introspection
      based greeters)
    * Wait for the VT to become active when switching to avoid a suspected
      race condition somewhere between LightDM, X, ConsoleKit and the kernel.
    * Stop lightdm_greeter_start_session_sync() blocking on success.

Bumped but I masked the patch because I believe it needs more testing. Feel free to test it and report back here. Thanks for the ebuilds
