(Get the code!)
Sorry, I thought I had been explicit enough.
The present bug deals with users with an empty password (using 'passwd -d'), while bug 393854 is about users actually having a password, but GDM not checking it to log in. In the present bug, GDM is handling the problem fine, we only need our PAM config files allow for empty password on graphical ttys: for now, they are not considered as secure ttys, while they should (above discussion). In the other bug, we need our PAM config file for GDM to allow members of the nopasswdlogin group to log in without any further authentication.
So nothing related in the way we should fix those, while they target related use cases. Hope this helps.
