39. By Sebastien Bacher on 2006-10-03

* New upstream version:
  - Use g_markup_printf_escaped so gdmsetup better handles description
    strings that contains things similar to a tag like an email address.
  - Fix gdmsetup so that the window manager close button works
    as the Close button in the dialog
  - Fix for bug #352838, avoid crashing by moving call to get
    GDM_KEY_SYSTEM_MENU until after authentication check.
  - Add g_type_init() to gdmflexiserver since this is needed
    for -a (authentication) code to work.
  - Translation updates
* debian/control:
  - updated Standards-Version to 3.7.2

    Bolsterlee, Maxim Dziumanenko, Artur Flinta, Leonid Kanter,

* debian/Xsession:
  - specify "ls" path, fix gnome-session not starting due to some parsing
    issues for people using an ls="ls --color" alias to their profile,
    thanks to Matthew Wang <email address hidden> from tracking it and
    suggesting the change (Ubuntu: #48876)

34. By Daniel Holbach on 2006-08-08

* New upstream release:
  - The iochannel fix in 2.15.8 broke the face browser when using
    gdmgreeter. Now fixed.
  - Fix so that focus never leaves the user/password entry when using the
    gdmgreeter Options button. The previous fixes for this didn't take
    into account the situation where the user pops up the menu, but doesn't
    select an option.
  - Fix error message that gets printed when you try to run GDM daemon as a
    non-root user.
  - The configure script now supports the Xserver installed in
    /usr/bin/Xorg.
  - Remove calls to syslog/malloc that are called from inside signal
    handlers, since they are not safe.
  - Improved commands in GDM configuration files.
  - Translation updates
* debian/patches/01_xconfigoptions.patch:
  - updated.
