Details

When doing a "pacman -Syu" I get this message:

Package "gnome-desktop" not found.
Package "gnome-desktop" not found.
Upgrading gdm...done.
Package "gnome-desktop" not found.
Package "gnome-desktop" not found.

When I install gnome-desktop and reinstall gdm the error message goes away. I do not know if causes any significant problems, but I figured I would report the problem anyway. Also, gnome-desktop did not popup as one of the dependencies to gdm when I was upgrading. I do not know if it is supposed to be a dependency, but pacman does not list it as a dependency.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  Fixing it right away, should be fixed with 2.6.0.9-2.
gdm actually runs postinstall/pre_remove for gnome-desktop in this state.
