Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-10
Severity: important
Hello,
today I updated my system and on the next reboot I noticed a very long startup
of GDM3 with this error: "Could not update .ICEauthority file
/var/lib/gdm3/.ICEauthority".
I have eliminated this error by removing that file and let gdm3 daemon re-
create it with:
/etc/init.d/gdm3 stop
rm /var/lib/gdm3/.ICEauthority*
/etc/init.d/gdm3 start
After those operation, on the next reboot, I received no errors but the great
delay is still present.
Here's the log of my last upgrade:

As you can see, there is a dependency of GDM3, libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0.
I don't know if that can help. but I also have these errors in my Xorg.0.log
