Subject: bug#494: lightdm: please add user lightdm to the audio group

Package: lightdm
Version: 1.26.0-4
Severity: normal
Tags: a11y

Dear Maintainer,

Please add the lightdm user to the audio group.
This is necessary so that the orca screen reader
can provide speech output at the 
lightdm-gtk-greeter login screen.
As far as I know, this is only needed when using the
orca screen reader at the login screen.
A possible side effect of adding lightdm
to the audio group may lead users who do not use
orca to question why lightdm is added to the audio
group on their systems. Perhaps this should be done only if
/etc/xdg/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/80_orca-dm-wrapper.conf already exists?
I am assuming it doesn't exist on a system which wasn't
installed with accessibility, but I don't know that for sure.
Thank you.

Greg,

Thank you for this report! Adding lightdm to the audio group across the
board sounds harmless, so that will be the plan going forward. Changes to
this package will of course start in Unstable (Ceres) and have to be
backported to Beowulf. Please keep an eye on this bug for updates.

B. Stack

Help Provide Urgent Humanitarian Care for Gaza's Children

Amidst the Unfolding Crisis in Gaza, Over One Million Children Hang in the Balance

PCRF is the primary humanitarian organization in Palestine, delivering crucial and life-saving medical relief and humanitarian aid where it is needed most.  Access to essential resources like food, clean water, and healthcare is severely limited.  Urgent action  is needed. With your support, we can continue this vital work, ensuring that the over one million children of Gaza receive the urgent care they need and deserve.

Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced from the northern Gaza Strip to the central and southern provinces, including PCRF social worker Reem Matar - photographed here - and her family, who have relocated to southern Gaza for their safety. She works here to distribute urgent medical relief to hospitals in Gaza.

Please donate now as PCRF responds to the urgent humanitarian crisis unfolding in Gaza. Your support shows children and families in Gaza that they are not alone.
