Hello,

I've just run a routine upgrade of most of the packages on my systems, and 
have now found that the GDM starts up and complains of a missing file, 
/usr/share/gdm/themes/debblue/debblue.png. Looking at this file, it seems 
to be a dangling symbolic link:

dh at njordr:~$ ls -l /usr/share/gdm/themes/debblue/debblue.png
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 50 2008-08-09 09:13 /usr/share/gdm/themes/debblue/debblue.png -> ../../../images/desktop-base/debblue-1600x1200.png

It seems as though this used to be provided by the desktop-base package, 
and I was unsure which package to report the problem in, but gdm-themes 
seemed to be the most appropriate one as it is the package no longer provides 
a usable debblue theme. If you feel that this is incorrect, feel free to 
reassign to desktop-base.

For the avoidance of doubt, I am trying to use the debblue theme. If you 
need any further information, let me know and I'll update the bug as soon as 
I can.

All the best,
- -Dave.
