When I compiled it and used on some LightDM themes, it worked. I dont remember to have received that message. I should check again.

Dropping this package because it's failing to build and maintainer MIA. Package never updated since submission, and comment from Oct 2023 was ignored.

@xiota I had open requests on it: https://github.com/JezerM/nody-greeter/issues/50#event-13498788278 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nody-greeter but if you pinged me here, I could push more upstream. I forgot to keep labelled this issue ticket as opened.

I just submitted an orphan request on the AUR package.

Reopened issue to make easier to track. When/if package is fixed, can be added back.
