Source: gdm Section: x11 Priority: optional Maintainer: Ryan Murray Build-Depends: libpam0g-dev, libgnome-dev, libwrap0-dev, debhelper, automake, autoconf, gettext, libtool Standards-Version: 3.1.1 Package: gdm Architecture: any Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, libpam-modules (>= 0.72-1), xutils, adduser Recommends: gnome-session Suggests: xsm, locales Conflicts: wdm, xdm, kdm Description: GNOME Display Manager gdm provides the equivalent of a "login:" prompt for X displays- it pops up a login window and starts an X session. . It provides all the functionality of xdm, including XDMCP support for managing remote displays. . The greeting window is written using the GNOME libraries and hence looks like a GNOME application- even to the extent of supporting themes! By default, the greeter is run as an unprivileged user for security.
