This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.21.1-0ubuntu2
---------------
lightdm (1.21.1-0ubuntu2) zesty; urgency=medium
Restore patch from 1.20.0-0ubuntu3:
* Add debian/patches/terminate-session.patch: Terminate leftover processes
in greeter session. It can happen that the greeter session does not
properly clean up itself on logout. This causes leaked processes like
settings-daemon which act on the user session as they share the same
$DISPLAY. Ask logind to terminate remaining processes in the greeter
session on closing, which is more robust than trying to fix every greeter.

Title:
Failure to update ~/.xsession-errors
Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
When there is an error in e.g. ~/.profile or /etc/profile, a zenity
warning dialog is shown at login which calls the user's attention to
the error. The error message should also be appended to ~/.xsession-
errors, but currently it's not.
Changing the line
cat "$ERR" >>/dev/stderr
in /usr/sbin/lightdm-session to
cat "$ERR" >&2
fixes it. (It used to work in trusty, but not any longer, so in part
it appears to be some SRU regression.)
Since possible error messages are shown in the zenity dialog, I don't
think this is important enough to backport. Prepared an MP for zesty.
