I forgot the following snippet:
# Upgrade from 2.4.1: make the old sessions not executable but keep them
# around if the administrator wants to get back their modified contents.
for file in Debian Xsession; do
if [ -f /etc/gdm/Sessions/"$file" ]; then
chmod 644 /etc/gdm/Sessions/"$file"
fi
done
It should be added to the postinst script, so that the sessions provided
by the gdm package aren't displayed twice.
