This was indeed the initial plan, but we finally switched to the new gdm (unless it changed again very recently). The old one poses too many maintenance problems, and also configuration files issues (it would break rather badly when doing things like going back gdm -> gdm-2.20). So I'm not sure this change is required. I just asked on #ubuntu-devel to know why the old gdm was accepted into karmic in the first place… Cheers, Lionel -- Lionel Le Folgoc - https://launchpad.net/~mrpouit E61E 116D 4BA1 3936 0A33 F61D 65D9 A66E 10E2 969A
