dmg_black

Forked from davidmogar's lightdm-webkit2-dmg_blue to:

• modify the colors from blue to black with a dark teal accent
• fix and maintain after lightdm-webkit2-greeter stopped working

lightdm-webkit2-greeter deprecation

Arch package lightdm-webkit2-greeter (link) is a project originating in the discontinued Antergos distro, and it is abandoned. After updating dependency webkit2gtk to version 2.38 logging in with the greeter stopped working.

Here's a very useful issue about this:

lightdm-webkit-theme-litarvan issue #186 - "It simply doesn't log in"

JezerM's web-greeter (link) is an updated and maintained fork. Available in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/web-greeter
