Could the same thing have happened in debian?

The issue is that new mate-session-manager installs a file named: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.mate-session whereas in previous versions it was named: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.mate This confuse session-chooser as it looks for the latter, not the former. As a workaround, please type this as root: cd /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ln -s xinitrc.mate-session xinitrc.mate Then as regular user type: session-chooser mate startx I will provide a new package mate-session-manager making this symbolic link as a post-installation task later today.
