Bug#265795: kdm does not allow user login
Package: kdm
Version: 4:3.3.0-1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Hi.
After today's sid upgrade, I discovered that kdm does not allow the user
login.
Few investigation later, I realized the error was on
/etc/kde3/kdm/Xsession. The version in KDE 3.2.x packages invoked
general X11 session file, while the one in KDE 3.3.0 appears to be
upstream file.
As an obvious solution, I reverted the file to 3.2.x version, and it
appears to work.
There is a really silly patch attached.
Regards,
Juanma.
