** Changed in: lightdm/1.10
    Milestone: None => 1.10.7

** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Trusty)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

** Description changed:

- Steps to reproduce:
+ [Impact]
+ LightDM quits when it receives SIGUSR1, SIGUSR2 or SIGHUP. But convention 
these signals should not quit a service (they should get it to dump state, 
reload configuration etc).
  
- service lightdm reload
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Start lightdm
+ 2. sudo killall -SIGHUP lightdm
  
- Expected:
+ Expected result:
+ Nothing happens
  
- lightdm reloads configuration without exiting
+ Observed result:
+ LightDM restarts
  
- Actual:
- 
- lightdm exits, taking the X server with it, killing any user session
- 
- 
- Even if config refresh isn't supported, lightdm should not quit when it 
receives SIGHUP, or reloading the service will have the same effect as stopping 
it -- definitely not optimal with remotely managed workstations.
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Low. We now just quit only on SIGTERM and SIGINT.
