Bug#437961: xdm: loading Xresources fails because bindir/xrdb does not exist



Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.1.5-1
Severity: normal

The latest xdm upload introduced a nasty regression: the
DisplayManager.xrdb xdm-config resource defaults to bindir/xrdb (sic)
rather than /usr/bin/xrdb.  As a result, xdm fails to load
/etc/X11/xdm/Xresources, defaulting to a relatively unattractive
configuration.

Could you please fix it?

Thanks!
