Package: gdm
Version: 2.2.5.5-2

I installed Debian from fresh 3.0r1 CDs. I choose kdm to be the default 
Display Manager. I got installation errors:

---------- cut here -----------

setting up gdm (2.2.5.5-2)
scrollkeeper-update. /usr/local/share/omf: No such file or directory
Registering /usr/share/omf/...
...
Adding system group: gdm
Adding group gdm (101)...
Done.
Adding system user: gdm.
adduser: Warning: The home dir you specified already exists.
Adding system user gdm...
Adding new user gdm (102) with group gdm.
Home directory /var/lib/gdm already exists.
Please be sure to run "dpkg --configure kdm".
dpkg: error processing gdm (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 10
...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 cxref
 gdm
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

---------- cut here -----------

and so on... Then I got a message about installation errors and the 
imperfection of Debian :-P

(Unfortunately the error messages for cxref were already scrolled out of the 
buffer.)
