[Bug 480744] Re: Failsafe X stuff shouldn't be stored in /etc/gdm

 

The files are stored under /etc for historical reasons + laziness.

Really, by Karmic these no longer even have anything to do with gdm, so
there's little reason they should remain where they are.  However, since
they are in /etc/, if we move them we also need rules to safely remove
the files from /etc during upgrades.

At this point given a few of the other failsafe-x bugs, it might make
sense to break these scripts out into a standalone package, rewrite it
in python, and provide both ncurses and gui frontends.
