Subject: [bug#50563] [PATCH 2/2] gnu: gdm: Add Wayland session wrapper script.
Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2021 07:49:38 +0000
* Patch GDM to support launching a wrapper script for Wayland sessions.
* Add `wayland-session` in `gdm-configuration` to specify the wrapper to use.
* Add default wrapper that runs non-GDM sessions through a login shell (based
on the `xinitrc`).
* Update the documentation with those changes.
