Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

GDM in feisty clears $HOME/.Xauthority on login, but if I set
"NeverPlaceCookiesOnNFS=false" it says:

Jan 22 10:33:33 ubu gdm[7347]: gdm_auth_user_add: Could not open cookie
file /u/lai/lk/tjaalton/.Xauthority

and creates an empty .Xauthority if it isn't found, otherwise leaves it
alone.

** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
