When I was trying to debug a different GDM error
<https://issues.guix.info/issue/36221>, I patched gdm for debugging
(see attachment): I had to add more g_debug calls to many places in
the code so I could see where it went wrong. It was really ugly, but
I do not know of a better way to debug GDM. Let’s hope it won’t be
necessary here and TTY1 output and /var/log/gdm/greeter.log and the
like are enough.
