Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.7-3
Severity: serious

Hi,

on a system I've just upgraded GDM shows a strange behaviour:

If I open up the "Actions" menu and click anywhere it forces a shutdown
of the system without asking for feedback about this action. Please note
that this does not even require me clicking on the OK button. Because of
this it is impossible to

- reboot the system via this dialog
- suspend the system via this dialog
- start the xdmcp-chooser from this dialog
- configure gdm via this dialog

I'm not sure if it affects other systems as well, so possibly its worth
to downgrade the bug to "important". However I think that this is not
really ready for release so I've choosen serious as the severity.

Best Regards,
Patrick
