Public bug reported:

Since 9 Oct 2017 that subdir is unreadable and empty.

oem@ubuntu:~$ ls -la /var/log/gdm3
ls: cannot open directory '/var/log/gdm3': Permission denied
oem@ubuntu:~$ sudo ls -la /var/log/gdm3
[sudo] password for oem: 
total 8
drwx--x--x  2 root gdm    4096 Oct  9 19:50 .
drwxrwxr-x 11 root syslog 4096 Mar 15 05:23 ..

So i have updated the rights:

sudo chmod +rx /var/log/gdm3/

and then get:

oem@ubuntu:~$ sudo ls -la /var/log/gdm3/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x  2 root gdm    4096 Oct  9 19:50 .
drwxrwxr-x 11 root syslog 4096 Mar 15 05:23 ..

But rebooting set back to: 'drwx--x--x  2 root gdm' and so cant register
logfile again.
