Bug Description
How to reproduce:
Install Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop (LTS) using ubuntu-
Configure a user with autologin enabled (at installation time).
Reboot several times in order to verify that autologin feature is working propperly.
Apply the latest updates using the Software updater tool.
Restart and Autologin is not working anymore.
To solve it i just donwgrade the GDM3 package from:
gdm3 3.28.3-
to
gdm3 3.28.0-0ubuntu1
Using this command:
sudo apt-get install gdm3=3.
And I setted the autologin again (already setted to ON) via Settings -> Details -> Users

I realized the solution i proposed works just once (in the next reboot/poweroff). After that, it doesn't work anymore. No matter ir you apply again the autologin setting it will not work anymore so it's not a solution.
I reviewed the list of updated packages in order to find one to blame but its to large (about 400) in order to blame just gdm3 for that bug.
