Thanks for your report.

I can reproduce this sometimes on Unity with LightDM and the Fcitx
packages for Simplified Chinese. When it happens, ~/.xsession-errors
looks like the attached file.

The explanation is a temporary file in /etc/profile.d for configuring
input methods (see bug #1720250). LightDM checks for errors when
sourcing that file, and apparently the launch of Fcitx results in
messages written to STDERR (sometimes...). I have submitted a LightDM
merge proposal to disable that error check for now.

@Iain: Can you please look at this. I suppose that there is no LightDM
release planned before release, so we should probably make an Ubuntu
only upload with this one change.
