Package: openbox
Version: 3.4.7.2-3
Severity: important
I installed LXDE just for testing it myself, but suddenly all the other
users in my machine have started getting LXDE sessions and Openbox,
without having changed any configuration. Since these users are not
highly technical, they are very much used to Gnome and they don't
welcome such changes.
I think Openbox and LXDE should not install themselves as default window
manager and session manager, respectively.

There is no bug here, the debian alternative system knows
about priorities, the priority for openbox is 40 but it is
not the default. Please have a look at #490392.
Based on this I close this bug.
Cheers
Nico
