Package: gdm3 Version: 3.12.2-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I have tried to install gnome in a virtual machine on a fresh cli install. Install went fine but when restarting gdm3 was not started.Taking a look to the installed files I have discovered that /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service link was missing and systemd has reported that grapical.target is in use. I have started gdm3 from console and it worked. Please notice that gdm3 was the only display-manager installed. Since gdm3 was the only installed display manager I have expected that after restart gdm3 to start gnome. In /etc/X11/default-display-manager file it was gdm3 present. It seems that gdm3-3.12-2 postinst doesn't create /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service link at first gdm3 install and gdm3 isn't started at reboot by systemd. I have downloaded gdm3-3.12-2 and tried a reinstall and .... after second gdm3 install /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service link was there and of course after reboot all was ok. It seems that gdm3 postinst creates /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service link only after second gdm3 install. I have expected that gdm3 starts after first install and reboot. Thank you. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.15-8.towo-siduction-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gdm3 depends on: ii accountsservice 0.6.37-3 ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii dconf-cli 0.20.0-2 ii dconf-gsettings-backend 0.20.0-2 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.53 ii gir1.2-gdm3 3.12.2-2 ii gnome-session [x-session-manager] 3.12.1-3 ii gnome-session-bin 3.12.1-3 ii gnome-session-flashback [x-session-manager] 3.8.0-3 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.12.2-1 ii gnome-shell 3.12.2-3 ii gnome-terminal [x-terminal-emulator] 3.12.3-2 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.12.2-1 ii libaccountsservice0 0.6.37-3 ii libatk1.0-0 2.12.0-1 ii libaudit1 1:2.3.7-1 ii libc6 2.19-7 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.16-2 ii libcairo2 1.12.16-2 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-2 ii libcanberra0 0.30-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.30.7-1 ii libgdm1 3.12.2-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.40.0-3 ii libglib2.0-bin 2.40.0-3 ii libgtk-3-0 3.12.2-1+b1 ii libpam-modules 1.1.8-3 ii libpam-runtime 1.1.8-3 ii libpam-systemd 208-6 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii librsvg2-common 2.40.2-1 ii libselinux1 2.3-1 ii libsystemd-daemon0 208-6 ii libsystemd-id128-0 208-6 ii libsystemd-journal0 208-6 ii libsystemd-login0 208-6 ii libwrap0 7.6.q-25 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-2 ii libxau6 1:1.0.8-1 ii libxdmcp6 1:1.1.1-1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13 ii metacity [x-window-manager] 1:3.12.0-2 ii policykit-1 0.105-6.1 ii ucf 3.0030 ii x11-common 1:7.7+7 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.7+3 ii xterm [x-terminal-emulator] 308-1 Versions of packages gdm3 recommends: ii at-spi2-core 2.12.0-2 pn desktop-base <none> ii gnome-icon-theme 3.12.0-1 ii gnome-icon-theme-symbolic 3.12.0-1 ii x11-xkb-utils 7.7+1 pn xserver-xephyr <none> ii xserver-xorg 1:7.7+7 ii zenity 3.12.1-1.1 Versions of packages gdm3 suggests: pn gnome-orca <none> pn libpam-gnome-keyring <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/gdm3/Init/Default changed [not included] /etc/init.d/gdm3 changed [not included] -- debconf information: gdm3/daemon_name: /usr/sbin/gdm3 * shared/default-x-display-manager: gdm3 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
