LightDM GTK Greeter

LightDM GTK+ Greeter in Spanish Debian Jessie

Asked by Gabriela

Hello, I have Debian Jessie installed with LightDM GTK+ Greeter, version 1.8.5-2 (https://packages.debian.org/jessie/lightdm-gtk-greeter) and this version greeter is not fully translated into spanish. I downloaded the lastest version 2.0 and it is properly translated, but its not in Debian repositories. I was wondering if you would eventualy upload it since my team and I are working in a Linux distro called Lihuen fully in spanish focused on education at schools, and we really like lightdm but we need it 100% in spanish for the kids :) . Hope you upload it soon!
Regards!

Hi, we actually do not maintain the packaging in Debian. However, the reason version 2.0 is not in Jessie is because it had already been frozen[1] by the time of its release. I'd recommend creating your own package repository where you can maintain different versions of your own packages.

Can you help with this problem?
