[Bug 1260604] [NEW] GDM does not work with new accountsservice 0.6.35-0ubuntu5

 

Public bug reported:

Gdm does not work with the latest accountsservice versions 0.6.35-0ubuntu3 - 0.6.35-0ubuntu5.
Actually the X will not start and there is no login screen available, only black screen.
Login from tty1 is of course possible, but startx will not work.

I have tested this with gnome-shell and gdm with both trusty official versions and the versions in the Gnome3 Staging PPA (trusty branch).
Also, I have tested this with ATI open source drivers and NVidia proprietary drivers.
None of these work.

Downgrading back to the version acoountsservice 0.6.35-0ubuntu2 helps
and desktop is fine again.
