All,
I have seen this thread growing the past few days. It relates to lightdm. I too had problems about a month ago with lightdm http://vsido.org/index.php?topic=823.0 but eventually solved them with your help.
But is this rash of recent borkage, apps like gpodder (ok now), calibre (ok for today), spacefm, lyx, mplayer (off and on), mirage, all breaking related to lightdm issues? or libgt issues?
I gave Sector11's post a read through (http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=34355&p=1) and that seems all somehow related to my own former issues, though more complex.
I guess what I want to know is
1) are these problems indicative of underlying troubles in the Debian or apt organizations?
2) I have suspected there is a bug in dpkg or apt for about 2 months. I am seeing lots of apps get uninstalled and others installed. Is this part of the problem?
3) what's the best advice to update frequently, but avoid the breakage?
4) and remind me how to put an html link under text so I can click on it.
