Bug#496178: [gdm] GraphicalTheme=sometheme in gdm.conf causes crash

Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.7-1

I had the same problem (gdm crash after update) while using the 
graphical greeter. The issue seems to be caused by using the 
themes "circles", "happygnome" and "happygnome-list" from the gdm 
package as well as with the "industrial" theme from the gdm-themes 
package. An easy workaround is to delete the line "GraphicalTheme=xxx" 
from the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf file, and then choose another theme...

Regards,
Kiro
