When you use the GNOME software application to manage your installed software and you choose to remove the package "Parental Controls", gdm, gnome-software itself, and a bunch of other components are removed.
Upon next boot, there is no more gdm and you will be greeted by the (very) old xdm login manager.
To solve the issue, login using xdm, re-install gdm, reboot.
This has been resolved - The control-app is now in the package malcontent-control, which can safeiy be uninstalled without killing the system. * Thu Dec 10 2020 - Split MalcontentControl into seperate package so a library doesn't require a desktop application. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
