Bug#358939: 2.13.0.10-2 installed gdm.conf causes problems

[Lupe Christoph]

Package: gdm
Version: 2.13.0.10-2
Severity: normal

The /etc/gdm/gdm.conf installed by the 2.13.0.10-2 package does not
contain commented-out defaults and explanations, making migrating
changed settings with emacs emerge hard.

Running gdmsetup will put them back in.

It would be easier if gdm.conf as created by gdmsetup would be shipped
with the package as has been in the past.
