Thank for the feedback.

It seems that I ignored recommendation from Francis.

Anyway.

I always upgrade my machines from .. fc34 to fc36, to fc38, to fc40, etc...

On a machine that I did not upgraded (still fc42)

ls /etc/authselect
authselect.conf dconf-db fingerprint-auth password-auth smartcard-auth user-nsswitch.conf.bak
custom dconf-locks nsswitch.conf postlogin system-auth

On the faulty machine (in fc44)

custom user-nsswitch.conf.bak

I.e. no postlogin !

It seems to be the issue.

I am going to run

authselect select local with-silent-lastlog with-fingerprint with-mdns4 --force

on the faulty machine and let you know

It Worked

Thank to every body who helped me.

I am going to upgrade other machines.

Right. It shows also, before this coredump:

gdm-launch-environment][1535]: PAM unable to dlopen(/usr/lib64/security/pam_lastlog.so): /usr/lib64/security/pam_lastlog.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

You are thus in this common issue:

https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/gdm-crashes-after-upgrade-to-fedora-43-due-to-authselect-migration/171961

as I suggested on July 6:

Apply the proposed workarounds.
