Package: gdm3
Version: 3.20.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

 I did an 'apt-get dist-upgrade' and end with this:

# LANG=C apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] 
Setting up gdm3 (3.20.1-1) ...
basename: missing operand
Try 'basename --help' for more information.
dpkg: error processing package gdm3 (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 gdm3


Seems to be the same error reported in bug #579103 (2010 - squeeze/sid)
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=579103



regards,
Herbert
