Public bug reported:
I'm on Ubuntu Wily and lightdm has been failing to install for the past
couple weeks. I've tried everything from removing the package and doing
a clean install to reverting to an older version, but it always fails
with the same error. Here's the error that I get when running the
install:
--
Preconfiguring packages ...
lightdm failed to preconfigure, with exit status 30
Selecting previously unselected package lightdm.
.
.
.
.
Setting up lightdm (1.16.7-0ubuntu1) ...
dpkg: error processing package lightdm (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 30
--
With the last reboot, I can no longer load the desktop.
