Package: wdm
Version: 1.28-17
Severity: wishlist
Since the following information is helpful when a .service file for
wdm is created, but #761236 is already closed, I'm creating a new bug
report tracking this.
Here's the mail, Agustin kindly sent to #761236:

Hi, Axel,
Sorry, I forgot to mark this bug report as affecting wdm, thanks for doing.
IIRC, last time I looked about how other display managers deal with
this I found no info. I later switched back to sysv until I can make
two local services behave exactly as I want under systemd, so forgot
about this until now.
However seems that more info is now available, some of it from the
gnome folks. There are service files for at least gnome3 and lightdm.
lightdm is probably closer to slim (and wdm) needs and the most useful
place to look at.
References for the bug reports,
https://bugs.debian.org/733220
Also info available in
https://titanpad.com/s-gsprintchangelog
section "= default display manager selection ="
In short they suggest using something like
ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c '[ ! -f /etc/X11/default-display-manager -o
"$(cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 2>/dev/null)" =
"/usr/sbin/lightdm" ]'
but there are some other details like symlinks and aliases
discouraging to care about.
>From titanpad:
* /etc/X11/default-display-manager is and remains the definitive selection
* graphical.target has Wants=display-manager.service which provides
the dependency for auto-starting DM
* In DM packages' .service files: Don't have an [Install] section
(Dependency or Alias) as systemctl enable will otherwise make the last
installed package "win" instead of the one selected in debconf
* DM postinst: Create symlink
/etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service →
/lib/systemd/system/$(basename $(cat /e/X/d)).service
* Until all DM .services are converted: Add ExecStartPre= check that
/e/X/d is pointing to "me", and fail otherwise
I think that might be useful for fixing slim and for the future
implementation of a wdm.service file.
