This bug was fixed in the package gdm3 - 3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1
---------------
gdm3 (3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1) focal; urgency=medium
[ Iain Lane ]
* New upstream release (LP: #1894874).
- Always use separate session bus for greeter sessions
This runs dbus-run-session, so the binary needs to be available
- Chrome remote desktop fix
- Don't hardcode path to plymouth
- Fixes for when GDM isn't started on its configured initial VT (LP:
#1845801)
- keyutils has a .pc file so use it
- User switching fix
* debian/{control,gbp.conf}: Update for ubuntu/focal & upstream/3.36.x
[ Simon McVittie ]
* Add Depends on dbus, for dbus-run-session
* Update symbols file.
This ignores a change to private symbols: gdm_find_display_session_for_uid
isn't declared in a public header, and nothing in Debian/Ubuntu seems to
call it.

Status in gdm3 source package in Focal:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[ Description ]
We should ship the stable update for gdm3
- Always use separate session bus for greeter sessions
- Chrome remote desktop fix
- Don't hardcode path to plymouth
- Fixes for when GDM isn't started on its configured initial VT (bug
1845801)
- keyutils has a .pc file so use it
This runs dbus-run-session, so the binary needs to be available
- User switching fix
We have a GNOME MRE so upstream's fixes don't need to be explicitly
verified.
[ QA ]
Test:
1. Regular login
2. Auto-login
3. Fast user switching
4. X and Wayland
5. Launching different sessions
[ Regression potential ]
It's the program which logs you in to your session - the consequences
could be severe up to and including nobody being able to log in using
gdm.
