Hi.
LXDM can work with or without ConsoleKit. Indeed the version in X11:lxde is built without ConsoleKit since April 2015.

The officially released version (4.1) is prehistoric.
Sure - I have to base my findings on the stuff I have in the distro - and lxdm has a bad taste in my mouth as this was updated in the past and reverted because it never worked on first boot... and the maintainer's proposed 'just reboot - it works on 2nd boot' is still not an acceptable situation for a distro... So as we carry a pre-historic version anyway - I'd say dropping it is the right thing to do which leaves us with - how do we do it. Cheers, Dominique
