Title:
  Cannot login if no local users exist

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  Since I use likewise-open for authentication, I thought it unnecessary
  to keep the one local user on the machine.

  Unfortunately, deleting this user prevents choosing “Other...” at the
  login screen, and also prevents typing from switching to a user name
  text entry box.  This makes it impossible to login.

  Obviously, gdm should allow logins even if there are no users in its
  list.
