In relation to bug #266532, comment #46

You problem with interaction with gnupg is complex. If it has hardcoded values
maybe those are mandated by some Xorg standard? This needs to be checked before
moving things around. These dot files cannot go wherever your hearth desires,
there are some rules to be followed and we need to investigate those. You're
asking the change, so it's it is your duty to perform such investigation.

I cannot and would not feel comfortable committing hacky changes.

Since you are addressing an interaction between multiple parts (login.conf,
consolekit, gnugp, lightdm, potentially other display managers), maybe the
change should be discussed on the mailing lists trying to involve other port
maintainers before forcing a change in a single tool (lightdm).

I'm really unable to properly evaluatre this change request, so I'm suggesting
again that you:

1 - file this change as a pull request with upstream [1]

2 - write to the mailing lists (I'd suggest desktop@ and maybe x11@, maybe also
ports@, please choose what you deem the best option) so people more informed
than me about these matters can express their opinions.
