Bug#791964: gdm3: upgrade causes X session to be terminated
[keeping pkg-systemd into the loop here] Am 10.07.2015 um 14:37 schrieb Michael Biebl: I suggest we follow up on this bug report. I'm not yet quite sure, if this is a gdm or systemd bug and whether the best course of action is to simply re-introduce the workaround patch and drop that in stretch+1 or if we drop the reload from gdm3.postinst or if this indeed another corner case which is not handled properly in systemd. Joss, bigon: looking at gdm3.postinst, I wonder why we do run invoke-rc.d gdm3 reload. Isn't that potentially dangerous, say we have a major new gdm3 upgrade with incompatible configuration and we tell the old, running gdm3 to reload this new configuration? Wouldn't we rather want a full-restart once all user sessions are closed? I'm not sure if gdm3 (still) supports that. As for the systemd specific part, I made an interesting observation, which might be related to the problem. Say you have gdm-3.14-7 runnig which has BusName *not* set. systemctl show gdm3.service -p BusName -p Type will return Type=simple (as expected). Merely changing the gdm3.service file on disk, and running systemctl daemon-reload *without* actually restarting gdm3, will now yield Type=dbus BusName=org.gnome.DisplayManager I find this behaviour unexpected and strange, i.e. changing the Type of a running job. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

You said seems to be a specific issue for the upgrade path, and I didn't know whether you meant the upgrade path for gdm3, systemd, or both. Just wanted to make sure. Ah, ok, I meant the gdm upgrade indeed. Yeah, probably a bit misleading when you get this email out-of-context. This was filed against gdm3 after all, specifically for gdm being upgraded.
