Description Georges Eckenschwiller 2012-02-15 17:32:06 CET
Description of problem:

The package xdm does not get the function "dm", while it is an display manager.

This has for consequence that xdm is not proposed when "dm" is required.

Comment 3 Thierry Vignaud 2012-02-29 17:35:02 CET
This is wrong IMHO as the only packages that requires or suggest dm are:
- xguest
- task-xfce-minimal

xguest didn't work with xdm and task-xfce-minimal had better require the dm it
wants like task-gnome & task-kde do

So I think this should be reverted. Let's fix task-xfce-minimal instead.
