Package: gdm3
Version: 3.0.4-4
Severity: normal
/etc/init.d/gdm start sometimes moans that it doesn't recognise the
option show-actions in org.gnome.power-manager; this is the first two
lines in
/usr/share/gdm/greeter-settings/xx_upstream.gschema.override. I can't
identify when it barfs and when it's ok, unfortunately :-/
