All,

Lightdm has been working fine up until pacman update today. After the update, lightdm fails with a garbled screen. The journal shows:

Feb 07 00:58:57 valkyrie systemd[1]: Starting Light Display Manager...
Feb 07 00:59:00 valkyrie systemd[1]: Started Light Display Manager.

Feb 07 00:59:07 valkyrie systemd[1]: lightdm.service: Consumed 1.177s CPU time.

  Lightdm.log shows the same:

[+0.01s] WARNING: Error getting user list from org.freedesktop.Accounts: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Accounts was not provided by any .service files

  What changed and what must be done to fix it?
