Bug Description
Binary package hint: pango-graphite
Installing pango-graphite causes gdm and applications using it unusable. Symptoms:
1. Login window (gdm), namely toolbar at the bottom (showing the time) and user selector do not show up. The background is visible, however; the "drum" sound is also audible. The mouse pointer is visible. After that, no interaction is perceivable. The only solution is to switch to a virtual console (Ctrl+Alt+F1).
2. The first symptom was an unusable authentication window during screensave; namely, none showed up. The mouse pointer was visible and interacted normally, but otherwise, the authentication "window" doesn't show up.
The only solution to this problem was removing the pango-graphite package.
