Bug#478263: xdm: does not allow to log in when no password is set

["Michal Suchanek" <michal.suchanek@ruk.cuni.cz>]

Package: xdm
Severity: normal


When I try to log in as a user with no password set xdm asks for a
password and fails to verify it. I have to set an empty password to make
xdm happy but this breaks other stuff.

Thanks

Michal
