That's not the right way to avoid restarting. If you need to avoid restarts, there's a separate '-r' option to dh_installinit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292990 Title: lightdm overrides dh_installinit in debian/rules and shouldn't Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The debian/rules for lightdm includes the following: override_dh_installinit: dh_installinit --no-start This appears to have been in place since the beginning of the package's history, with no reason given. And the result of this override is that if you install lightdm on a running system, lightdm will not be automatically started at install time like it should be. Please drop this override from the package.
