--------

If you have no clue what GDM is, refer to the documentation links
at the bottom of this announcement.

The 2.18.2 release is a stable release of the GNOME Display Manager
(GDM) program with the following bug fixes and improvements:

- Fix handling of AlwaysLoginCurrentSession and DoubleLoginWarning so
 it works for the non-migratable case (for Xnest, XDMCP, etc.).  Fixes
 bug #172600.

- Use an unsigned char buffer in gdm_fdgetc (Brian Cameron)

- Just display the default "authentication failed" message when we
 receive PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL (Lo\357c Minier)

- Fix for bug #428630. (Brian Cameron)

- Translation updates (Peter Bach, Funda Wang, Pema Geyleg, Christophe Merlet,
 St<E9>phane Raimbault, Priit Laes)

Note:  GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen <mkp mkp net>.
Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl; and Brian Cameron
now currently shares maintainership duties with the Queen of England.

Note2:  If installing from the tarball do note that make install
overwrites most of the setup files, all except gdm.conf.  It will
however save backups with the .orig extension first.
