Bug#778695: wheezy -> jessie: no gdm3 prompt, dependency loops and broken initrd
Hello, I've worked a little bit on this in the same setup as Anarcat used, here at koumbit. I've figured out why the users were not listed in gdm3. It was a line in /etc/pam.d/common-session that was missing: session optionalpam_systemd.so with this line users are listed. This problem was caused by our puppetmaster crushing the file's contents, so it's not an issue with the upgrade process itself. I've also had issues with dependencies during dist-upgrade but I don't have good info to show here and I think the issues were with different packages. I'll try to get more info on this on the next upgrade. However I couldn't reproduce the initrd issue. The desktop rebooted in the new kernel as expected after both short and full upgrades. Maybe the difference was that I did not reboot between short and full upgrades and rebooted only once at the end of the whole process. Cheers signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

[...] The next problem I found was with gdm3: it was startup, but would only show the top toolbar: no user menu or user/password prompt. I worked around the problem by installing lightdm. I suspect this may be related to our LDAP setup. It usually has a not listed? click here bar that lets non-/etc/passwd users log in, IME. Was that not available? Do you have logs from gdm?
