Package: ksmserver Version: 4:3.2.1-1 Older versions of KDE apparently used /usr/bin/kde3 to start a KDE session. If the x-session-manager alternative was previously pointed at this program (eg, after an upgrade from an older KDE), the alternative is not removed by either the old postinst or the new one, with the result that x-session-manager becomes a broken link. On at least one system that I have seen, this resulted in users being unable to log in.
