Hi,

i took the night to test it :

here it is

a. Fresh install bookworm 12.7.0
    - uncheck gnome
    - check xfce
    - no root passwd
    - only 1st account
b. Change in .*conf files
    - /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
        - greeter-hide-users=false
        - greeter-allow-guest=true
    - /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf
        - user-background=true in [greeter] section
c. reboot
d. change wallpaper of 1st user.
    - use wallpaper in /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce
e. issue : Wallpaper is not displayed by lightdm
f. go to log files /var/log/lightdm
    - see files lightdm.log.1 et seat0-greeter.log.1
    - issue : WARNING : Error getting user list from org.freedesktop.Accounts :[....]
g. solve issue : sudo apt install accountsservice
    - hint : accountsservice should be a dependencies of lightdm package.
h. reboot
i. issue : Wallpaper is not displayed by lightdm
j. go to log files /var/log/lightdm
    - see files lightdm.log.2 et seat0-greeter.log.2
    - no more warning in lightdm.log nor in seat0-greeter.log
    - issue : WARNING : Error getting user list from org.freedesktop.Accounts :[....]
k. change wallpaper of 1st user. (new step that i've not done on my install)
    - use another from /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce
l. logout
m. Victory : the walpaper is displayed

So as a final there's only the package accountsservice which is missing as dependencies of lightdm package

Could you please make the change.

regards,

Emmanuel
