Package: xdm

Thanks for 4.2!!

Problem with starting xdm (it wouldn't).  I've traced it down to the
following:

polya:~ $ sxpm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/pixmaps/debian.xpm 
Read Xpm Error: Failed to parse or alloc some color.

I'm on an 8-bit display, which probably has a lot to do with it.

Closing since the bug was supposed to be fixed a while ago, and the
submitter never said whether he could reproduce after the ping last year.
