Hi Jeremy, I didn't go with the transitional package option because the only reverse dependencies are the ubuntustudio-meta's. If we upload both us- default-settings and us-meta at about the same time (there is a diff that drops us-lightdm-theme from the us-meta package attached to the bug), then we will avoid a build failure on the daily Live-CDs, and get it all over in one go. I have tested that this works with an "apt-get dist-upgrade" in my Zesty VM and my ppa.
But I am happy to add a dummy package if that helps find a sponsor!

We should move this config file to ubuntustudio-default-settings (which is the natural home for such configuration), and remove the lightdm-theme package. Krytarik prepared a transition to achieve this, but it was a little close to the release date for Yakkety. I reverted this, so that only the change to the latest Numix Blue theme was uploaded instead. This bug is to remind us to do the transition & removal after Yakkety is released. Remember to take care to update the seeds and metapackages as well as part of the transition.
