[Bug 53527] Re: Settings are lost when upgrading

[Sebastien Bacher]

Retitling the bug, the issue is that the gdm.conf-custom is a conffile
and it the user has the choice to upgrade and drop his changes or keep
using his version and not get changes from the new version. The issue is
limited though since the default custom conf is a template and has no
useful value so keeping the user version works fine
