I'm at a loss to explain how this could be so. Is the file below, taken
from the lightdm source, the correct one? Because it contains no 'start on'
condition at all (nor a 'stop on'), which means the service would never be
automatically started at boot.
# lightdm - LightDM display manager
#
# The display manager service manages the X servers running on the
# system, providing login and auto-login services

emits login-session-start
emits desktop-session-start
exec /usr/bin/lightdm
For the record, the upstart job in Ubuntu has this start condition:
start on ((filesystem
and runlevel [!06]
and started dbus
and (drm-device-added card0 PRIMARY_DEVICE_FOR_DISPLAY=1
or stopped udev-fallback-graphics))
or runlevel PREVLEVEL=S)
All of these events are now provided at boot on a Debian unstable system
with the exception of 'started dbus'. AFAICS, lightdm can't add an upstart
job back until dbus is upstartified in Debian.
