[Bug 1669818] [NEW] Ubuntu Budgie shows debian wallpaper due to greeter recommendation

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by fossfreedom (fossfreedom):

Ubuntu Budgie, like Xubuntu uses lightdm-gtk-greeter as its default
greeter.

However, due to the recommendation of "debian-base" in debian/control,
we show all the debian wallapers in that package.  Very confusing for
users.

Please can this be changed to a "Suggests:" instead?

Note - I originally asked this Q on Debian, but they declined saying its
a downstream issue

I was going to attach a debdiff for the change, but the current source
for lightdm-gtk-greeter zesty does not compile under zesty due to
lightDM API changes.  Was the package simply copied from Xenial?  Which
begs the question - how on earth does the greeter actually work under
zesty if the API has changed!
