Good point, GDM can't be left untranslated in Debian...
Well if you know a bit about the bug you can hack a simple wrapper that
sources /etc/environment and next start GDM, but well, you have to redo
it each time you install a new release... quite boring for the user.
And as said : someone that doesn't know anything about this bug can't
understand why GDM's not localized...
