I guess we should both provide a virtual 'display-manager' package
and conflicts with it.

Agreed, I just pushed lightdm-1:1.12.1-1 with this change.

The conflicting state of lightdm and sddm just because of this
file, which is identical, is suboptimal. lightdm includes
"dm-tool" which also works with sddm. "dm-tool" is the only tool
that I know of that allows to start new greeters in sddm from a
plain window manager setup, e.g. fluxbox.

It seems debian solved the conflict by renaming
"/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.DisplayManager.conf" to
"/etc/dbus-1/system.d/sddm_org.freedesktop.DisplayManager.conf" in
their sddm package. I'm not really keen on making a split package
just for dm-tool so I suggest we mimic debian here.

+1 for renaming. Until both DMs implement the same D-Bus
interface, it shouldn't be a problem.

As a matter of fact, they do implement the same interface. That's
why the files are identical.
