        No worries. You are not using slim, but light-dm, so you don’t need to worry.

        If you experience any problem loging in, you may have to look at this thread:

          You may want to remove the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99-update-slim file or move it out of that directory so that it is not trying to update slim which does not exist.
