Subject: SDDM  segfaults X11 session on first reconfigure
Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2017 18:45:15 +0000

I noticed this:

My system uses SLIM.
I build the new system config which includes SDDM instead,
reconfigure, and at the point where SDDM service probably gets
started, SDDM segfaults the current X11 session.

This is a grave error with SDDM and needs some better way of
handling the initial activation of the new display manager.

To be more specific, this is a problem with either sddm-service or
display-manager-service.
