** Description changed: + SRU request: + + [Impact] + + * As a result of this bug, the lightdm configuration file will always + been overwritten. This is not desirabled or expected and causes serious + problems on any *buntu system other than Ubuntu. + + [Test Case] + + * Enable the precise-proposed or the saucy-proposed repository and + install nvidia-prime (0.4.2~hybrid0.0.1 in precise or 0.4.2~hybrid0.1 in + saucy). + + * If the package doesn't overwrite the lightdm greeter in the + lightdm.conf file, then the fix is correct. + + [Regression Potential] + + * The regression potential here should be zero, as we only replace two + conditions ( "test -f" and "test ! -s") that can never be true at the + same time, with the "test -s" condition which does exactly what we need + - it checks that the file exists and has a size greater than zero - and + reuse the existing file if this condition is satisfied. + + ---- + I have done a fresh install of saucy, before the installation of nvidia- prime lightdm-gtk-greeter was set in lightdm.conf. During the installation of nvidia-prime the greeter ist changed to unity-greeter which causes a crash and no display after a reboot. When changing the greeter back to lightdm-gtk-greeter everything works fine.
