Hi Dmitry, Thanks for the follow up.
Yes, I was talking about "gnome-session-fallback", sorry for confusion. >However in stable it was already an empty transitional package (see [1]), >so I wonder how it could cause any segfaults for you. I have no idea either, but I'll just let you know my Debian originates from a woody initial install which was always upgraded along the way and never re-installed. So, it's quite an old-timer which exhibits strange behaviours some times. Maybe, it's the root-cause of this segfault?... Best regards, Cyrille PS: It looks like I merged bugs 842367 and 842366 incorrectly: All the info appears in 842367 while only 842366 shows up in the list of bug affecting gnome-session-flashback. 2016-10-28 17:37 GMT+02:00 Dmitry Shachnev <mity...@debian.org>: > Hi Cyrille, > > On Fri, Oct 28, 2016 at 04:15:34PM +0200, Cyrille Bollu wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I've removed gnome-session-failback and now login works like a charm. > > There is no package named gnome-session-failback, so I assume you > meant gnome-session-fallback (note ālā instead of āiā). > > > Should gnome-session-failback be automaticaly removed during upgrade to > > stretch? > > I have now bumped the Breaks version in the packaging Svn, this should > help with removing it. > > However in stable it was already an empty transitional package (see [1]), > so I wonder how it could cause any segfaults for you. > > [1]: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/gnome-session- > fallback/filelist > > -- > Dmitry Shachnev >
