Sean, Thanks again for your unofficial packages - using them with no problems.
BTW, why your gdm packages keep log files in /var/lib/gdm instead of /var/log/gdm? Is this hard to change? The old gdm package in unstable puts the log files in the correct location. You might want to take a look at it to see how it does it.
