Severity: minor
Tags: patch

As the gui/gdmconfig.desktop entry doesn't handle the case that a
non-root user tries to run gdmconfig, a call wrapped via gksu or the
like should be implemented. 

Suggested patch:

diff -r gdm-2.2.5.5/debian/control gdm-2.2.5.6/debian/control

< Suggests: xsm, locales, apmd
