Public bug reported:

Release to remove it from: Zesty

Remove both the source package and all binary packages?: Yes

Package rdepends: None

Rationale:

lightdm-webkit-greeter uses the old webkitgtk (webkit 1) api which is
currently in the process of being removed from the archive[1]. The
greeter's code was updated two years ago to use the new webkit2gtk
(webkit2) api. Since then it has been, and continues to be, actively
developed under the name lightdm-webkit2-greeter[2].
