Name        : gdm
Product     : Fedora 16
Version     : 3.2.0
Release     : 2.fc16
URL         : http://download.gnome.org/sources/gdm
Summary     : The GNOME Display Manager
Description :
GDM provides the graphical login screen, shown shortly after boot up,
log out, and when user-switching.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update adds an upstream fix to ensure GDM only uses GNOME Shell to handle login if Shell is actually present on the system. This fixes use of GDM to log in to non-GNOME desktops on systems which do not have GNOME installed.
