lightdm 1.3.1 for F17?

[Sergio Cipolla]

I intend to replace LXDM for LightDM to help with testing.
Version 1.3.1 was built two days ago for F18. Can I use it in F17 (I 
don't even know if the system will accept to install it)?
Should it be built for F17 too or it just doesn't make sense to test it 
in F17?

Regards.

It's already in updates-testing for f17 and f16, it needed an specific
selinux-policy. So it took some time:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/search/lightdm-gtk

It works for me!

Ok, thanks. I'll replace lxdm for it today when I shutdown the PC.

Just to clarify.
I had disabled selinux but that isn't needed. There's an updated 
selinux-policy package in updates-testing that takes care of that.
For some reason it apparently didn't work at first for me but I must 
have done something wrong (like using setenforce=0 the first reboot 
after the update).
And if we disable selinux, relabelling takes quite a long time when we 
enable it again.

Once what's currently in updates-testing gets pushed to stable, I'll submit 
newer lightdm-1.3.1 builds for updates-testing.

Ok, fine. I made a mistake thinking that the selinux issues had to do 
with the lightdm package. But I think it's the selinux-policy package 
that has to be updated, right?
Anyway, I just installed lightdm, waited a couple of minutes for it to 
show up then another some for Xfce to show up and now I'm going to set 
selinux :-)

correct.

Now, it was pointed out to me that lightdm-1.3.x is tracking the lightdm 
unstable upstream branch, so I'm not so sure about making this one available 
for f17 or not.  I'll have to think about it.
