This is a pre-built package of the fancy Webkit Greeter for Debian x64.

I encapsulated the installation in a Docker container to be more platform independent and to isolate the build dependencies.

Installation requires following steps:

1. git clone https://github.com/berlam/debian-lightdm-webkit-greeter.git greeter

2. cd greeter && mkdir build

3. docker build -t "lightdm-webkit-greeter" .

4. docker run --rm -v $PWD/build:/root/build --name "lightdm-webkit-greeter" lightdm-webkit-greeter

5. dpkg -i build/lightdm-webkit-greeter_2.0.0.deb

Do not forget to setup the new greeter with "greeter-session=lightdm-webkit-greeter" in "/etc/lightdm.conf".

Change also the theme to simple or webkit in "/etc/lightdm-webkit-greeter.conf".

Themes are placed in "/usr/share/lightdm-webkit/themes" and can be fully customized with HTML.

Tested on Debian Stretch.

Are welcome! Especially people with experience in releasing software in the official debian repo for a few hints.

Many thanks to the Launchpad Project.
