Title:
  gdm restart failure during libc6 upgrade

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When upgrading my 12.04 system to libc6 2.15-0ubuntu2 via update-
  manager, I got a debconf prompt that asked me whether services should
  be restarted. I answered 'yes'. A second or so later I got another
  debconf dialog that said that gdm failed to restart (see attached
  screenshot).

  Dialog text:
  "The following services could not be restarted for the GNU libc library upgrade:
  gdm
  You will need to start these services manually by running '/etc/init.d/<service> start'."

  (Not sure if this should go under gdm since that's where the failure
  is or libc since that's what triggered the failure)
