Package: gdm3
Version: 3.8.4-3
Followup-For: Bug #724731
I managed to solve by removing and reinstalling the following packages,
as suggested in commment 71:
gnome-core gnome-shell gdm3 gnome-session
When I reinstalled, I see more packages than those removed. Maybe it's
a hint to find the culprit of this bug?
See the tail of my /var/log/apt/history.log:
