[Bug 1547297] Re: No auto login in Ubuntu GNOME Xenial

[fermulator]

What was the installer editing instead? (is there some dangling file
edits hanging around somewhere now?) -- I see from above that it was
editing "/etc/gdm/...", on my system fully updated though, there is no
dangling files in /etc/gdm/, so that's good.

This is what is actually needed (as we know):
{{{
$ cat /etc/gdm3/custom.conf | grep Auto
AutomaticLoginEnable = true
AutomaticLogin = <USER>
}}}

Even if we fixed the installer, what to do about all the existing
versions with the bug?

Will we have it auto-correct once the user runs patch updates? - or are
they just stuck with googling to find this bug report and then have to
fix it manually? :(
