Package: task-gnome-desktop
Version: 3.13
Severity: important

I just did an install from the nightly debian-installer, in text mode,
choosing default options all the way up to the tasksel screen.

In the tasksel screen, i chose "Graphical Desktop Environment" and
"Standard System Utilities", and nothing else.  The desktop
environment selection appears to have chosen task-gnome-desktop for
me.

After the reboot following the installation, i am greeted with gnome's
nearly-content-free error message screen, complete with frowny-face
computer:

----------------
  Oh no!  Something has gone wrong.
  A problem has occured and the system can't recover.
  Please log out and try again.
  [Log Out]
----------------

weirdly, this screen seems to be a normal window thrown on top of a
functional destkop environment.  If i press Alt+Spacebar, i can get
the window manager's menu, from which i can select "close", revealing
the desktop.

Most users won't be able to figure out this workaround, and instead
will repeatedly click the "log out" button, only to log in again and
be stymied again.

I don't know where to find debugging information to sort this out.
there are many spurious-looking messages in ~/.xsession-errors.  I'm
attaching one .xsession-errors from a failed session to this bug
report.  maybe the ones about gnome-settings-daemon failing to
register are the relevant ones?

I find that if i add the "Print Server" task from tasksel, log out,
and then log back in again, i don't get this mysterious message.

Perhaps gnome needs to be more resilient on systems where normal
printer daemons aren't installed?  or some extra dependency is
missing?  or both?

Since I haven't heard of anything like it in the past few months, I'm
closing #690017 now. Thanks for letting us know about #687978.
