package gdm 3.8.4-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 128

[Santiago Gala]

No clue, sessions stopped working after a reboot following an update, with lots of errors that I guess are those reported now. After login I got black screen with a white mouse and nothing else. Sometimes errors ("Cancel" "Report bug") windows without decoration...

It started working again after I updated, dist-upgrades installed lxde and chose it as a session. Bad breakin completely X sessions, I had no way to get network access or research/report the errors
