(If you have no clue what gdm is, skip a few paragraphs down first)

The 2.14.3 release is a stable release of GDM that fixes the following
issues:

- Fixed bug where gdmchooser was ignoring hosts passed in on the command
   line  Now gdmchooser works properly when BROADCAST is set to false.
   (Brian Cameron, Tiago Vignatti)

- Marked strings as translatable and fix gdmsetup.desktop file so it is
   translated.  (Vincent Fretin)

- Fix to conform to C89 compilers.  (Jens Granseuer)

- Translation updates (Josep Puigdemont Casamaj\303\263, Artur Flinta,
   Chao-Hsiung Liao, Kjartan Maraas, Ignacio Casal Quinteiro, Francisco
   Javier F. Serrador,  Funda Wang)


Note:  GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen <mkp@mkp.net>.
Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl, and Brian Cameron
currently shares maintainership duties with the Queen of England.

Note2:  If installing from the tarball do note that make install
overwrites most of the setup files, all except gdm.conf.  It will
however save backups with the .orig extension first.

No RPM this time around BTW.  Have fun.  A spec file is included though,
so you can try:

   rpmbuild -ta gdm-whatever.tar.gz

Have fun,

Brian
