Package: gdm3
Version: 3.4.1-9
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
since upgrading gdm3, gdm-simple-greeter has strange behaviour:
The list of users (I have 2 here) is somehow shown, but collapes to 2px height, with only a blue 1px line and a blue 1px line with white dashes is shown, like the border of a selected element in a list. No button is visible (is there supposed to be one?). Hitting cursor-up or cursor down on the keyboard changes something, that is the dashed line jumpes up or down 1px.
After hitting Enter on the keyboard, one of the users is selected for login and I get the normal dialog showing the user name, the field to enter the password, a drop-down field to choose the session, buttons to cancel and log in. The selection of the user is repeatable, that is, in the user list, "navigating" up and down in a certain order brings up the login dialog for the 2 users and the dialog for "others...".
I'm not aware that I have changed something in the config. Last thing I did was upgrading testing after release, which of course drew in a log of new packages. I think 3.4.1-8 did not have the problem, but I cannot downgrade due to dependency problems with libdconf1/libdconf0 which I cannot resolve manually. apt-logs say that I had installed 3.4.1-8 until 2013-07-01. I waited for some update hitting testing soon, this is why I report only now.
I have some 10 packages from unstable installed, which I think are unrelated to the problem. Anyway, list is attached.
I have nothing installed from experimental.
Regards
Patrick
