Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install from netinstall, Select Cinnamon DE 2. Reboot 3. Stop after fedora boot screen Actual results: Nothing happens after fedora boot screen, it's meant to init the GDM. Expected results: GDM is meant to load. Additional info: Cinnamon is missing the below dependency packages: telepathy-glib-0.20.2-1.fc19.x86_64 mutter-3.8.2-1.fc19.x86_64 gnome-session-xsession-3.8.2-1.fc19.x86_64 telepathy-filesystem-0.0.2-5.fc19.noarch telepathy-logger-0.8.0-2.fc19.x86_64 gdm-libs-3.8.1.1-3.fc19.x86_64 gnome-shell-3.8.2-2.fc19.x86_64
Reassigned to GDM. gdm should require it's own deps to function.
Proposing as a Beta FE - cinnamon is switching to lightdm, but I think SoaS is still on gdm and this bug is breaking the SoaS spin. And there may be other ways to hit it. Making gdm work more reliably seems like a good thing to get in.
Discussed at 2013-05-20 freeze exception review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-05-20/f19beta-blocker-review-7.2013-05-20-16.07.log.txt . Accepted as a freeze exception issue on the condition that we will only push a fix through freeze that meets these conditions: a) only adds Requires: lines to the gdm spec, does not touch gdm code at all b) is tested not to add packages to or increase the size of the desktop spin

I'm going to move SoaS to lightdm as gdm now unfortunately needs gnome-shell and all the stuff it pulls in.
