description |
after apt-get purge lightdm the /var/lib/lightdm folder is deleted and then never recreated reinstalling the lightdm package. The folder is necessary due to the create of the .Xauthorithy file.
1. apt-get purge lightdm
2. apt-get install lightdm
Lightdm can't start
I have to manually create che /lightdm folder in /var/lib and then chown lightdm:lightdm it.
Got the latest ubuntu Wily updates |
[Impact]
After apt-get purge lightdm the /var/lib/lightdm folder is deleted and then never recreated reinstalling the lightdm package. The folder is necessary due to the create of the .Xauthority file.
[Test Case]
1. $ sudo apt-get purge lightdm
2. $ sudo apt-get install lightdm
Expected result:
LightDM starts
Observed result:
Lightdm can't start. Manually creating /var/lib/lightdm and chown lightdm:lightdm makes it work.
[Regression Potential]
Low. The change is to not remove /var/lib/lightdm on package removal. This directory should only be removed when the user is removed. |
