Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-10
Severity: normal
Regarding the random wallpaper script, with desktop-base installed, the random
wallpaper will appear, and then the spacefun wallpaper will replace it. Without
desktop-base installed, a bright, lime green desktop will appear. This is in
Openbox.
My preferred GTK theme, CleanIce-Marble, doesn't work, not even in a preview.
CleanIce-Debian will work in a preview but won't work in windows after
applying.
