  * Walkaround
after further analysis, lightdm failed to display the background because
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.background doesn't exist
So i install gdm3 but i keep lightdm as my dm.
and it works but cause so trouble in xfce because of many package such as
keyboard settings and so on were also installed as a part of gdm3 !!

   * Excpected solution
It would be nice that the lightdm package contain all nessessary
dependencies in order to have its features working fine.

Hey, thank you for the bug report. I'm not sure exactly what are the
dependencies of user-background = true (which is the default) but there is no
way we would add gdm3 as a dependency to lightdm-gtk-greeter, that wouldn't
make sense at all.

Also I'm not sure I see the link with org.gnome.settings-
daemon.plugins.background but maybe some logs would help.

In Lomiri Greeter and Unity Greeter the user background image code depends on an Ubuntu-specific patch in AccountsService:

https://salsa.debian.org/freedesktop-team/accountsservice/-/blob/ubuntu/debian/patches/0011-add-background-file-support.patch

In Lomiri Greeter we added code to be able to work without that patch on distros that don't have it.
