I also created a bug in lightdm bugtracker - https://github.com/canonical/lightdm/issues/236 Unfortunately it seems like Canonical abandoned lightdm entirely. There are several issues in the GitHub repo that I consider important but development of lightdm has been stalled for quite a while already. I fear that this will not improve anytime soon. What is recommended to use instead of it for Mate ? Looks like lightdm was tied with unity, and when Ubuntu switched to Gnome they're probably investing to gdm right now. (In reply to Einstok Fair from comment #3) > What is recommended to use instead of it for Mate ? Choose any of your liking. xdm, lxdm, gtkgreet, gdm... No idea when exactly this changed (it definitely wasn't me) but current lightdm ebuild depend on sys-apps/accountsservice if USE=gnome is set, as the bug description suggests it has been. |
