Package: gdm3 Version: 3.6.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, upgrading to gdm3 from experimental the new gdm-shel greeter does not work anymore. The old metacity one is used instead.
Enabling the debug I can read the following error in /var/log/gdm3/:0-greeter.log: gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Getting session 'gdm-shell' gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /var/lib/gdm3/.config /gnome-session/sessions/gdm-shell.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/var/lib/gdm3/.config/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-shell.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /etc/xdg/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-shell.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/etc/xdg/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-shell.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /usr/share/gdm/greeter /gnome-session/sessions/gdm-shell.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/usr/share/gdm/greeter /gnome-session/sessions/gdm-shell.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /usr/local/share/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-shell.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/usr/local/share/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-shell.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /usr/share/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-shell.session is a valid session file >>>> [RELEVANT PART] gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Launching helper 'bash -c 'type -p gnome-shell >& /dev/null && /usr/lib/gdm3/gnome-session-check-accelerated'' to know if session is runnable bash: /usr/lib/gdm3/gnome-session-check-accelerated: File o directory non esistente gnome-session[4577]: WARNING: Session 'gdm-shell' runnable check failed: Child process exited with code 127 <<<< [RELEVANT PART] gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Session is not runnable gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Getting session 'gdm-fallback' gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /var/lib/gdm3/.config /gnome-session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/var/lib/gdm3/.config/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /etc/xdg/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/etc/xdg/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /usr/share/gdm/greeter /gnome-session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/usr/share/gdm/greeter /gnome-session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /usr/local/share/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): Cannot use session '/usr/local/share/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session': non-existing or invalid file. gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Looking if /usr/share/gnome- session/sessions/gdm-fallback.session is a valid session file gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: *** Checking required components and providers gnome-session[4577]: DEBUG(+): fill: provider 'windowmanager' looking for component: 'metacity' gdm3 is looking for a non existent '/usr/lib/gdm3/gnome-session-check- accelerated', while gnome-session-bin ships '/usr/lib/gnome-session/gnome- session-check-accelerated'. Putting a proper symlink in '/usr/lib/gdm3' solves the problem and makes me happy with the new shiny greeter :) . Thanks!
