gdm3 (49.1-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * d/Xsession, d/gdm3.install, d/rules:
    Restore ability to launch X11 sessions.
    Version 49.0.1-1 removed the example of a non-package-manager-provided
    X11 session, but also removed the ability to launch X11 sessions
    at all: all sessions that do not have X-GDM-BypassXsession
    in their .desktop file require an Xsession script, which was
    historically provided by Debian rather than by upstream. Restore
    that functionality.
    In a future upload we should look at whether we can use
    /etc/X11/Xsession as-is, but let's get the GNOME 49 transition
    done first.

gdm3 (49.1-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * d/control: Increase gnome-session-{bin,common} dependency to 49.
    The new version of gdm doesn't start successfully with the old
    gnome-session. The new gnome-session-bin already Breaks the older
    gdm3, but the new gdm3 didn't yet force installation of the new
    gnome-session. (Closes: #1119809)

gdm3 (49.1-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * Release to unstable (transition: #1116394)

gdm3 (49.1-3) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * d/control: Remove :native annotation from dconf-cli.
    Now that dconf-cli is Multi-Arch: foreign, this is unsatisfiable.

gdm3 (49.1-2) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * d/control: Depend on a version of libnss-systemd with #1118640 fixed.
    Otherwise, looking up the gdm-greeter* dynamic users in shadow/gshadow
    will not work on systems that were installed as Debian 11 or older,
    and then upgraded. (Closes: #1116563, #1118454) (LP: #2121017)
  * d/greeter.dconf-defaults: Improve documentation a bit
  * d/greeter.dconf-defaults: Mention the accent colour option.
    When we reach the forky freeze and background/branding images become
    available in desktop-base, we might want to set this to a coordinating
    colour (see #1105056). Until then, leave the default commented-out.

gdm3 (49.1-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Team upload

  [ Simon McVittie ]
  * New upstream bugfix release

  [ Luca Boccassi ]
  * Do not patch out display-manager.service alias from .service file
    (Closes: #1025349)
