Please describe the problem:
GDM 2.20.3 fails to compile with the following error:

verify-shadow.o: In function `gdm_verify_setup_user':
verify-shadow.c:(.text+0x88): undefined reference to `gdm_debug'
verify-shadow.c:(.text+0xd8): undefined reference to `gdm_debug'

The last version of gdm to compile with shadow was 2.20.2.

SlackWare 12.0
Kernel 2.6.21.5_smp / Xfce 4.4.2 / gtk+2 2.10.13 / Xorg 1.3.0.0
gnome-doc-utils 0.12.0 / libgnomecanvas 2.20.1.1 / gail 1.20.2

This is a know bug that has been fixed in the 2.20 branch.  There is a pretty simple patch to fix the problem in bug report #508275

Sorry about the duplicate post.

I downloaded the patch provided in Bug 508275 and was able to successfully compile 2.20.3.
