[Bug 1669818] Re: Ubuntu Budgie shows debian wallpaper due to greeter recommendation / lightdm-gtk-greeter does not compile

[Robie Basak]

Uploaded lightdm-gtk-greeter 2.0.2-1ubuntu1 and budgie-artwork 0.7.2 to
artful with a few changes. Thank you for your work!

Changes:

lightdm-gtk-greeter: rewrote debian/changelog to accurately reflect the
merge as above.

budgie-artwork:

1) I appended ~ to the prior-version in the maintscript. See dpkg-maintscript-helper(1) for details.
2) I bumped zesty to artful in debian/changelog as the update didn't make Zesty.

For lightdm-gtk-greeter, it seems that much of the current delta could
be folded into Debian, but given the delays already I didn't want to
delay an upload further asking for that. Please could the next person to
merge lightdm-gtk-greeter sort this out? Additionally the maintscript
snippets in the maintainer scripts could do with folding into the
debhelper .maintscript file so everything is in one place. Additionally
I didn't check if they could be dropped now.

Title:
  Ubuntu Budgie shows debian wallpaper due to greeter recommendation /
  lightdm-gtk-greeter does not compile

Status in budgie-artwork package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in lightdm-gtk-greeter package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  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

   - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=850328

  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!
