Package: debian-edu-config
Version: 1.815
Severity: important
Tags: patch
With kdm in jessie the script doesn't work anymore cause kdm sets
$HOME=/ before the script is executed.
So users are not informed about a possible reason for the failing login
and don't get a hint how to solve the problem.
The patch has been tested and committed to git.
