Details

Description: Wayland session other than weston can't be started [1].

Additional info:

  • package version(s): lightdm 1:1.18.3-1
  • config and/or log files etc.: attached

Steps to reproduce: Install lightdm and lightdm greeter (xorg-server, xf86-video-*, and xorg-server-xwayland is needed) Install weston and sway Enable lightdm.service From lightdm greeter, choose sway session. You'll be thrown back to lightdm greeter.

Additional note: It seems that lightdm tried to launch Xsession wrapper for wayland session.
