Title:
  gdm monitors for $HOME/.face even when IncludeAll is false

Status in GDM: The Gnome Display Manager:
  Fix Released
Status in gdm package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gdm source package in Lucid:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  I'm using kerberized NFS mounts, and the gdm user has no business
  poking them. Still I get a lot of log spam because gdm can't get a
  krb5 context. The reason for this is that it adds a monitor for
  $HOME/.face, but can't get to it:

  Feb  8 14:48:46 nexus6 rpc.gssd[3602]: CC file '/tmp/krb5cc_0' owned by 0, not 113

  Feb  8 14:48:46 nexus6 rpc.gssd[3602]: doing error downcall

  I don't think it should do that when IncludeAll is false, ie. it
  shouldn't list previous users at all in that case (note that it
  doesn't help even if I remove /var/cache/gdm/ contents..).
