This provides a minimal shell script (based on the upstream version) to enable guest sessions in lightdm. If you want to add more functionality (like a startup dialog) you can add an executable script /etc/guest-session/setup.sh which will be called by the guest-account script and place default files in /etc/guest-session/skel.

Note: Installing this package enables the guest session feature of LightDM without changing your LightDM configuration. This is done simply by adding a script and a group to your system. So either don't install this package or configure your LightDM if you don't want to give guests access to your system.
