      - depend on bash for config_error_dialog.patch
      - update vcs field
      - recomends libpam-fprintd (instead of suggests)
    + rules:
      - don't override default user/group
      - -dgdm-xsession=true to install upstream xsession script
      - override dh_installinit with --no-start to avoid session being killed

      use upstream custom.conf instead of daemon.conf
    + gdm3.{postinst,postrm}: rename user and group back to gdm
    + gdm3.postinst, gdm3.prerm: don't kill gdm on upgrade
    + gdm3.*.pam: make pam_env read ~/.pam_environment
    + gdm3.install:
      - stop installing default.desktop. it adds unnecessary clutter
        ("system default") to the session chooser.
      - don't install debian/xsession
    + add run_xsession.d.patch
    + add xresources_is_a_dir.patch

        full locale as needed by lang.

        don't let a syntax error make the login fail

      greeter's dconf db

gdm3 (3.38.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * debian/gdm3.preinst: Add script to replace possibly wrong .conf file.
    In gdm3 versions of the 3.38 series a regression was introduced causing
    the /usr/libexec/gdm-disable-wayland tool to write its supposedly
    temporary gdm file to the persistent location.
    This is particularly harmful for users of the NVIDIA drivers as they
    will get their default config file (/etc/gdm3/daemon.conf in debian and
    /etc/gdm3/custom.conf in Ubuntu) modified for good, making impossible to
    login in a Wayland session (once nvidia driver is disabled).
    As per this, in case of upgrades or install with configuration files
    left, we replace the gdm's daemon.conf/custom.conf file in case it
    matches the one that the disable-wayland tool would produce.

    (LP: #1899673)

gdm3 (3.38.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    - Fix bug leading to users /etc/gdm/custom.conf getting overwritten on
      nvidia systems (LP: #1899673).
    - Fix typo in comment
    - Translation updates
  * debian/rules: Don't override the runtime-conf path anymore.
    Upstream fixed the root issue for changing this, so the default runtime
    configuration file will be correctly written in the runtime path again.

gdm3 (3.38.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * d/rules: Set runtime configuration path.
    In Autotools, the default runtime configuration path used to be
    ${GDM_RUN_DIR}/custom.conf, but in the Meson build system the fallback
    changed to be the same as the custom.conf path in /etc (set to
    /etc/gdm3/daemon.conf in Debian for historical reasons).
    Explicitly set it to the path we used before switching to Meson, so
    that configuration changes by gdm-disable-wayland are temporary as
    intended, and do not persist to a subsequent boot.
  * Revert "debian/watch: Monitor unstable versions"
  * d/upstream/metadata: Add
  * Merge packaging from unstable
  * Release to unstable
