Package: xfree86-common
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal
In /etc/login.defs I set umask to 002, and that works for logging in on
the console or remote via ssh. However, if I use {g,x,k}dm I keep
getting an umask of 022, because Xsession is started by the display
manager which has a default umask of 022.
It seems that Xsession doesn't change the UMASK at all. I think it
should inherit the values from /etc/login.defs. But maybe this should be
done by the display manager, in which case this bug applies to {g,k,x}dm
and whatever other display managers Debian provides.
