** Summary changed:
- gdm is requiring gnome-session in karmic
+ GDM depends on gnome-session in karmic
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: gdm
- Gdm 2.26 that is new in karmic is requiring gnome-session as a pure dependency
- Problem is that with a xubuntu is very annoying, gnome-session is taking the
default way but more important now the metapackage gnome-session has grow up
and includes nautilus, gnome-control-center and many others packages
- gnome-session must be put as a "suggested" not depency I think
+ GDM 2.26 in Karmic depends gnome-session on gnome-session which pulls in
+ most of gnome which not only causes the Xubuntu CDs to be over sized but
+ to set the default session to gnome.
+
+ GDM should be updated, as per discussion in #ubuntu-devel, to be depend
+ on gnome-session-bin instead of gnome-session, metacity | x-window-
+ manager, and should recommend gnome-settings-daemon | xfconf.
+ Furthermore, /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/metacity.desktop
+ should be patched (and probably renamed) to launch x-window-manager
+ instead of metacity directly.
