Bug#648042: purging gdm deletes /etc/X11/Xsession which is a file needed by other packages

[J G Miller]

Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.11-4
Severity: normal

gdm sadly exists no more in "Testing" and so after today's upgrade,
it was necessary to purge the configuration files.

This caused /etc/X11/Xsession to be deleted which should not have
happened because this file is also part of x11-common, xdm, and wdm.
