Bug#826542: gnome-orca: DM wrapper not removed when deinstalling package

[Thomas B. Preußer]

Package: gnome-orca
Version: 3.20.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

after deinstalling the package gnome-orca, lightdm failed to bring up an
X session - unfortunately without any clear hint to the underlying problem.
Having finally made the connection to the deinstallation of gnome-orca, it
proved that this package failed to remove this configuration file:

 /etc/xdg/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/80_orca-dm-wrapper.conf

Its manual removal rendered the lightdm session functional again.

Please, consider sanitizing the deinstallation of this package.


Thanks,

Thomas
