Hello maintainers for Cinnamon,When building the daily live image for Cinnamon based on sid, I noticed that since cinnamon-core 6.0.0 you are using a new greeter (slick-greeter) for entering username and password.It is in the 'Recommends' section, and will be the active greeter after installation (instead of lightdm-gtk-greeter).I just wanted to ask you to confirm whether this is an intended change.
Hi, yes is an intended change as you can see in changelog [1] and the commit [2]
I did mainly for Ubuntu where lightdm and lightdm-gtk-greeter are different from Debian and in particular lightdm-gtk-greeter have deps that add many packages with components of other DE not needed, from a fast test I did I thought there was a slight improvement in Debian too.
Did you perhaps notice any problems that I hadn't noticed with slick-greeter?
