gdm is STOPPED at bootup, rather that started

[Martin-Éric Racine]

Binary package hint: gdm

Unrelated to #447226, since I boot with the normal graphical Plymouth.

Since this morning, in Natty, GDM starts with a STOP action upon booting. The init.d script prints:
Stopping GNOME Display Manager [OK]

As a result of this, GDM needs to be manually launched from a vcons. This is a regression. Verified on two different hosts.

duplicate bug #735805?

[Martin-Éric Racine (q-funk)]

Yup, it indeed appears to be a duplicate. For some unknown reason, ubuntu-bug made LP show me a lot of unrelated bugs that could be duplicates, but not 735805.
