Bug Description
After booting the system and login screen is displayed top right gear-icon contains option to Suspend. However, selecting that action has no results at all (no error message, nothing in any file under /var/log or journalctl). I would like to get the suspend action to work similar to older Ubuntu versions (this system used to run Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and I did a fresh install of 18.04.1 LTS).
I have removed package gdm3 and installed lightdm instead because I like the lightdm interface better for our use case.
Looking at the source code in liblightdm-

Does anybody care about lightdm bugs? I'm still seeing this issue but I haven't found a way to debug it. Is there some environment variable or some other method that can make all g_debug() messages visible from lightdm? Currently no log seems to contain any of the g_debug() messages in the lightdm source code.
