Package: xrdp
Severity: important

Hi,

I have installed xrdp 0.9.0~20160601+git703fedd-3~bpo8+1 on a Jessie
machine.  For all users who started an xrdp session there is a new
file named

    .thinclient_drives

This file is not accessible at all:

# file .thinclient_drives
.thinclient_drives: sticky, directory
# cd .thinclient_drives
bash: cd: .thinclient_drives: No such file or directory
# ls -la .thinclient_drives
ls: cannot access .thinclient_drives: Permission denied

In MidnightCommander it is displayer in red with a leading '?'
dated 01.01.1990 is owned by root and has all permissions unset
(like `chmod 000 .thinclient_drives`)

As root I can remove this dir using

    rm -rf .thinclient_drives

but that's the only option I've found to deal with this.

The problem that occures from this is that when starting
Thunar it claims that it can't open this dir (which is
correct) and seems to stop gvfs scanning from then on and
users can not see their network mounts.

When browsing the packaging git of xrdp I see:

$ grep -R thinclient_drives
debian/patches/fusepath.diff:-    /* define FUSE mount point to ~/xrdp_client, 
~/thinclient_drives */
debian/patches/fusepath.diff:+    /* define FUSE mount point to ~/.xrdp_client, 
~/.thinclient_drives */
debian/patches/fusepath.diff:-FuseMountName=thinclient_drives
debian/patches/fusepath.diff:+FuseMountName=.thinclient_drives
sesman/sesman.ini:FuseMountName=thinclient_drives
sesman/chansrv/chansrv_fuse.c:    /* define FUSE mount point to ~/xrdp_client, 
~/thinclient_drives */

so it is definitely xrdp that's causing this strange dir.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
