Couple quick issues with this:
You might want to open up a bug report on https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages to get that PAM config file patched, or submit the patch yourself: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/tree/master/srcpkgs/lightdm
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I prefer lightdm to sddm and would prefer it worked with zfscrypt
Describe the solution you'd like Adding the following lines makes it work correctly
auth include system-login account include system-login session include system-login
Describe alternatives you've considered The obvious alternative is to use sddm however sddm on trident uses a non standard session dir meaning that installing say i3-wm using the gui to select session type appears from the user perspective to be completely broken although you can fix this by copying over the desktop file to the dir used by sddm. Presumably this is also true of the 1001 different graphical environments available for lights. Configuring lightdm to run correctly just requires adding the same lines to the pam configuration that is included in the sddm file.
Personally I've been bitten by several bugs specifically with sddm in the past I don't consider it reliable software.
