** Description changed:
+ When installing gdm-2.20, gdm is implicitly removed. If, at debconf dialog
"Configuring gdm-2.20" the user selects "gdm" then the install fails with the
message :
+ Removing gdm ...
+ Please be sure to run "dpkg-reconfigure gdm-2.20".
+ dpkg: error processing gdm (--remove):
+ subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 10
+
+ The dialog shouldn't show gdm as an option since it is being removed.
+ Furthermore, it shouldn't be shown at all when there is only one display
+ manager available.
