[Pkg-lxde-maintainers] Bug#922694: lxdm: Continuous restart on start failure

[Aleksey Midenkov]

Package: lxdm
Version: 0.5.3-2.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

if Xorg fails to start, lxdm service endlessly loops in restart attempts.

/lib/systemd/system/lxdm.service has a wrong setting for Restart:

Restart=always

it must be:

Restart=on-success
