Title: Add package containing Unity Greeter badges Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Currently, only a small number of potential desktops have badges shipped with Unity Greeter. Other desktops are supposed to ship their own [1]. However, some desktop packagers would prefer not to do this. For example, the MATE packagers would prefer to keep the packages the same in Debian and Ubuntu, and therefore would like to avoid an Ubuntu-specific patch like adding a Unity Greeter badge [2]. One solution, which would keep these badges both out of the unity- greeter package and out of the various desktop packages, would be to package the badges available at [3] together in a single package. I am an experienced Debian maintainer and plan to create such a package soon.
