Bug#596484: gdm: depends on xserver-xorg and xfonts-base packages
Package: xdm
Version: 2.20.7-4lenny1
Severity: grave
1. I instal Debian base system without desktop.
2. Install GDM through aptitude from stable rep.
3. Reboot.
After boot GDM doesn't start. Appears xserver error: xserver not found.
Installing xserver-xorg and xfonts-base packages solve problem. GDM just works.
I suggest to set xserver-xorg and xfonts-base to dependencies of gdm package.
