Sorry to pick up a rather old thread started by myself, but someone found a solution and I suppose it should be visible here also: 1. Unmerge gdm. 2. Remove the gdm user, the gdm group and any files in /var/lib/gdm. 3. Merge gdm. This created a new gdm user with a different uid. Ref: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6038 raffaele
