Hmm, I'm still experiencing gdm restarts during some upgrades; the last
one was today, when upgrading from gdm 2.28.0-0ubuntu14 to gdm
2.28.0-0ubuntu17. I believe the HUP from the postinst file could be
causing this, but as I don't want to reboot my computer again, I shrink
from trying it:

PID=$(status "gdm" 2>/dev/null | awk '/[0-9]$/ { print $NF }')
[ -z "$PID" ] || kill -HUP $PID

What makes this even worse is that after gdm is restarted, neither the
mouse nor the keyboard are working anymore. The only escape is rebooting
the computer via Alt+SysRq+RSEIUB.
