It's a straightforward bug: the package does not behave as described.
Here's a suggested fix: replace the following text:
- Saved session: if you have saved a session, it is located in
~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session/. You can enable automatic
session saving or manually save it in the "Startup Applications"
configuration applet.
with:
- Saved session: if you have saved a session, it is located in
~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session/. Automatic saving and
restoring of the session is currently not reliable (see bug #771896),
and has been disabled in Ubuntu. To enable automatic session saving:
dconf write /org/gnome/gnome-session/auto-save-session true
To re-enable automatic session restoring, set the environment
variable GNOME_SESSION_SAVE somewhere that is
read by your display manager's Xsession script (for example, in
~/.profile for gdm).
(Note: as far as I'm aware manual session saving is no longer available.
As you can see, the name "GNOME_SESSION_SAVE" is an unfortunate choice,
as it actually controls whether the session is restored, not whether it
is saved.)
