Public bug reported:

if you follow the directions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi

sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

about 20% thru the installation it will ask which window manager you want 
(using dpkg-reconfigure).
if you select lightdm, you will only get a blank greeter screen after you 
reboot.

using sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3

resets this to gdm3 and after a reboot, everything is fine.

this was done on a clean armhf eoan install on a 4gb raspberry pi 4B.

I have done the install several times.   This bug is repeatable.
