If using lightdm you can remove the gdm dependency with ln -s /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm/gdmflexiserver /usr/local/bin/gdmflexiserver

@martadinata666 - Why out of date?

@Dizzy- Change mirrors. @Hepta- Well, gdm is only a makedep, not a dep. View all the comments on the page for a discussion. If you don't want to "pollute" your system with these deps when building, why not build in a clean chroot? See clean-chroot-manager in the AUR.

Last update lead to a dependency on gdm. Is that /really/ necessary? It pulls in 64 additional dependencies on my machine (basically all of gnome).

Anyone else getting that it is unable to download ibus-1.5.3-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz ? :(

I use LightDM actually. I removed gdm from makedepends and --with-login-manager from configure and it works fine. The "new login" button does send me to lightDM's login screen. I recommend this tweak to LightDM-only users. @SirWuffleton: I just noticed you answered the very same question like 6 months ago. I am mortified. I'll learn to scroll the AUR pages fully down next time I have a question... With all my apologies. @graysky: well, I just don't know how I managed to work around this in 5.20 then..

Well, it will build but if you wish to use the user-switching capabilities, I believe gdm is actually required to be present at build time. For example `lxdm -c USER_SWITCH` invokes this for non-gnome DEs like xfce4+lxdm. FYI - This was present in 5.20: http://pkgbuild.com/git/aur-mirror.git/commit/xscreensaver-arch-logo?id=1e66440199830041c3148f6913ddd34be1f85cc8

@FlyingFrenchman: I'm pretty sure that it's safe to remove the gdm dependencies if you don't want/require GDM integration. It builds and runs just fine for me after removing the gdm dependencies and removing the '--with-login-manager' argument to configure.
