It's a fresh install, I am not upgrading from a previous version. As a
matter of fact I installed Ubuntu 18.04 on two different computers and
both behave the same way with the login screen: when I make a typo in
the password, I can't login even if I type the correct password the next
time. It just shows the wallpaper / background but nothing happens. By
the way, the above bug-description is not mine: I just converted a
question someone asked about a week ago to this bug report because I
also have the same problem and nobody answered that question yet.

As for the package, sure if 18.04 uses gdm3 then it's gdm3. I was just
following the Wiki you linked me which says that if it's the login
screen then it's LightDM
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#At_the_login_screen), so
that documentation also needs an update because it's apparently out of
date and contains false information.

If you need me to attach logs, let me know.
