Bug Description
LightDM fails to correctly load ~/.Xresources that contains cpp preprocessor directives. In /usr/sbin/
xresourcefi
if [ -f "$xresourcefile" ]; then
echo "Loading resource: $xresourcefile"
xrdb -nocpp -merge "$xresourcefile"
fi
Why is "-nocpp" there? XDM never used to use "-nocpp", nor does it today (see /etc/X11/
Perhaps LightDM inherited this bug by copying GDM, which is also broken (see bug #785521).
