+Subject: [PATCH] Fix switchToGreeter not available without logind
+From: Alexander Miller <alex.miller@gmx.de>
+
+Seats can't be created until SeatManager's signals are
+connected to the DisplayManager, or the latter won't see
+them and switchToGreeter doesn't work. So split SeatManager
+initialization from its constructor and call initialize it
+only after all connections have been set up in DaemonApp's
+constructor.
+
+With logind there may have been enough delay before seats
+got actually added so things would work, but it's still
+cleaner to fix the order.
