Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: gdm package has script in (propably) prerm script that is trying to stop gdm process before removal. unfortunately my gdm crashed and this was the reason why I was trying to reinstall (from console terminal) but I couldn't do this without gdm up and running so I had to turn it on and then as fast as possible switch to first tty console and hit enter to apt-get --purge remove gdm... and I had to to this before gdm will crash I think that this should be changed in package. I understand that script should stop gdm but it should skip this when gdm is already turned off. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
