Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0.5-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hi Daniel,
in the "lxde" packages list, the following packages are installed in exactly this order: gdm lxde lxnm.
Unfortunately the order of packages parsed to both apt-get and aptitude is important with respect to the resulting installed packages, see #401835 and many others.
In this case apt tries to install gdm and satisfy its dependencies first, then lxde and lxnm. The gdm package depends on "gnome-session | x-session-manager" and thus apt attempts to install gnome-session. This is because it does not know that the next package on the command line, namely "lxde", will pull in "lxsession-lite" (in case of Lenny) which in turn Provides: x-session-manager and thus already satisfies gdm's dependencies.
Reversing the order of packages in the list, i.e. putting gdm last, fixes this issue - please see the attached patch. This is because when gdm is to be installed, apt already knows that its dependency on "gnome-session | x-session-manager" is already satisfied by lxsession-lite. 

Cheers,
Fabian
