Dear maintainer,
I use sway which is launched from a greetd session. Since 1.10 I get a
quick screen of sway flashing the default background when
a) greetd starts (gtkgreet in my case)
b) logging in at the gtkgreet prompt just before my session starts
This is a bit annoying, and wasn't the case with the previous version.
best,
werdahias

Hello Matthias,
I am taking the liberty to close this bug report, as it was a matter of
configuration, and you confirmed it is no longer an issue for you. I
believe the default setting, to show the default Sway background if nothing
else is specified (or in any case, the Debian system background, following
the suggestion in #969428) is fine.
Of course, feel free to reopen if you feel otherwise.
– Gunnar.
