Package: gdm3
Version: 3.14.1-7
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
Recently upgraded wheezy to testing (jessie)
gdm3 wouldn't start.
several log messages:
May 4 18:24:25 tosh gnome-session[1371]: gnome-session[1371]: WARNING:
Could not parse desktop file caribou-autostart.desktop or it references a not
found TryExec binary
There are 2 files of this name:
/etc/xdg/autostart/caribou-autostart.desktop
/usr/share/gdm/greeter/autostart/caribou-autostart.desktop
I changed gdm's caribou-autostart.desktop path to caribou to match xdg version
/usr/share/gdm/greeter/autostart/caribou-autostart.desktop
Was: Exec=/usr/lib/gdm3/caribou
Now: Exec=/usr/lib/caribou/caribou
Gdm starts ok now.
This may explain other people's gdm start problems
