A little OT: Installing LightDm

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr.]

I believe that the Arch repository page lists all dependencies.  The
problem is that many Linux versions have different names for the
dependencies.

Look in the source code for lightdm.  It should have a list of dependencies
somewhere, perhaps in the build folder.
