[Bug 1004932] [NEW] kdm.conf file not removed after dpkg-reconfigure

[monochromec]

Public bug reported:

The upstart file for kdm is not removed from /etc/init when choosing
lightdm over kdm as the default DM. When installing kdm after lightdm
and then selecting kdm as a default DM and subsequently changing this
back to lightdm by dpkg-reconfigure lightdm, the upstart stanza for kdm
is not removed from /etc/init.

This means that the system is starting with TWO DMs instead of one which
may result in some interesting side effects never mind wasting
resources.

Steps to reproduce:  follow the above workflow.
