Package: x11-common Version: 1:7.7+18 Severity: minor Tags: patch Hi,
Thanks to the #845948 report against sddm, we noticed that the "Default Xsession" xsession desktop file is being provided by the lightdm display manager (in the /usr/share/xsessions/lightdm-xsession.desktop file). And since: - This xsession file is useful for other display managers, such as sddm, that uses the /usr/share/xsessions/*.desktop to allow the users to choose their preferred sessions. - This ends up calling /etc/X11/Xsession default which is the only way to use the user's ~/.xsession file - The script that processes the "default" parameter (/etc/X11/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args) as a special case is provided by the x11-common package. I believe, it would be better to this file in the x11-common package (renamed as /usr/share/xsessions/user-xsession.desktop or /usr/share/xsessions/default-xsession.desktop).
