Hi,

Is there any possibility of this patch being reviewed and included in the Ubuntu 10.04 series? We just had the customer at this site ring up complaining that they couldn't log in today. Turns out something reverted our patched gdm package back to the original Ubuntu one.

Think: big industrial system, and when this problem occurs we have to boot everyone off to restart gdm. It was good until the old package got instated then the service restarted, causing the old problem to occur once more. This is our problem, but you could help us a little if you put out an updated gdm binary.

Or, as a work around: maybe tell us a way we can stop the update manager from messing with the one we have now.

The original patch is linked in the original post, my revised patch is supplied, and I've given detail on how to reproduce the problem and how to check if the problem is fixed. Is there anything else I need to supply in order to get this bug resolved?
