Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.30.2-3
Severity: important
After upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy, local Gnome sessions work are normal as
well as command-line logins for LDAP users. Logging into a Gnome session is
impossible for an LDAP user as the session start hangs. Using WDM and starting
gnome-session from a terminal window reveals numerous error messages, the first
of which relating to a problem creating a control file at $HOME/.cache. As the
home directory is an SMB share (which I cannot change) such file types are not
supported ("permission denied"). WDM itself works.
