Create a script named Default in PostSession dir of GDM, that deletes the
dir that is causing the problems. Read the GDM docs to learn how Pre /
PostSession dirs work.

But I would also check other things, cos the script is just a hack, a temp
solution, not the real solution. To start check the config and the file
permissions.
