I've noticed in 18.04.2 (upgraded from 16.04 LTS), with gnome-shell
3.28.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.4 and ubuntu-session 3.28.1-0ubuntu3, the *lock*
screen is still pinning to /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css.
Note, the login session screen is using the correct theme.

This is related: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-
shell/+bug/1732450.

As per https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-
shell/+bug/1732450/comments/5, the nasty I did to work around it shows
the gdm3 / session lock screen theme is still pointed directly to
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css instead of /usr/share/gnome-
shell/theme/gdm3.css.

I also checked the alternative symlinking, and indeed, `pop.css` was
supposed to be used, yet the lock screen used ubuntu.css.

```
$ update-alternatives --display gdm3.css
gdm3.css - auto mode
  link best version is /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/pop.css
  link currently points to /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/pop.css
  link gdm3.css is /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/pop.css - priority 20
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css - priority 10
```
