Is there a reason why this 'fuse' package is included and still needed? (I think the libraries packages like 'libfuse2' built from the same source package are still needed, but are the binaries in 'fuse' actually needed?)
It seems like the 'fuse3' package has a "Provides: fuse" line and is installed by default, so 'fuse' should never get installed unless something explicitly asks for it, either with a versioned dependency, or by running "apt install fuse" (or some equivalent of that). And nothing in the archive seems to have such a versioned dependency (at least in "jammy"), so this only really happens when someone installs the 'fuse' package directly. Someone on IRC just explained that some third party tool said that it needed "fuse", so they did 'sudo apt install fuse' and assumed that that would give them the latest version of "fuse" (which is not entirely unreasonable...), and thus ended up with gdm crashing on next reboot... Fixing this in stable releases might be tricky, but certainly removing/replacing/renaming 'fuse' should be possible for "noble" at least? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1717878 Title: gdm3/gdm-session-worker crashed with SIGTRAP logging "GdmSession: no session desktop files installed, aborting..." from get_fallback_session_name from get_default_session_name from get_session_name from get_session_filename from gdm_session_is_wayland_session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fuse/+bug/1717878/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
