proposing as blocker so we can take the fix for final, this is pretty serious - NTH at least. halfline knows what the issue is and has a fix pending.

Add some CCs for blocker votes.

Comment 4 Adam Williamson 2011-10-25 00:02:01 UTC
We should fix at least this one *or* the other bug: if you have a fingerprint enrolled, then if you try to log in with the fingerprint you hit this bug, and if you try to log in with a password you hit another bug. You can't log in either way. The update fixes both bugs, so we should just take that and be happy...

Comment 5 Fedora Update System 2011-10-25 03:23:34 UTC
gdm-3.2.1.1-3.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
