Package: slim
Version: 1.3.6-5
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
I am not sure that this is a slim problem, but as the system is almost
unusable, I cannot investigate.
After an apt-get upgrade earlier today, the system presents a new slim
login page. Logging in works, but then the whole system restarts X
(presumably) and the sylim login prompt appear again. This ahhpens in
what seems to be an infinite loop, roughly every minute or so.
I am only able to compose this message outside X using a pseudo
terminal. The restarts interrupt the terminal and represents the slim
login page. Fortunately the terminal context is retained so I can switch
back to the terminal.
I have not yet tried removing slim which I hope I may be able to do
despite the constant restarts.
I suspect slim because it seems to be the only likely candidate in the
set of upgrades earlier today, and it is the slim login screen which
keeps looping.
Presumably others will report this problem as well.

Description:
slim - desktop-independent graphical login manager for X11
Closes: 861474
Changes:
slim (1.3.6-5.1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Non-maintainer upload.
* slim.service: Drop BusName=, fixing endless (re-)start loop under systemd.
Thanks Aggelos Avgerinos <evaggelos.avgeri...@gmail.com> for testing.
(Closes: #861474)
* slim.service: Drop Conflicts=plymouth-quit.service and
OnFailure=plymouth-quit.service, as slim does not stop plymouth by itself.
Retain After=plymouth-quit.service for correct ordering though, which
should be sufficient to solve #860465.
