Package: xfce4-session Version: 4.8.3-2+b1 Severity: normal when an xfce4 session is "saved for future logins" and that session doesn't contain a window manager, the user is presented with a windowmanager-less environment at the next login, from which he might not be able to recover without deeper knowledge of the system.
said behavior occurred on a freshly installed debian wheezy system under normal usage conditions, and could not be reproduced so far. nevertheless, xfce4-session should be clever enough to detect that an essential part of the session (xfwm4) is missing, and start a window manager. as a workaround, i had to remove the xfce4 session from ~/.cache/sessions/, thus losing the list of running applications. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xfce4-session depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.8 ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libcairo2 1.12.2-2 ii libdbus-1-3 1.6.0-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.9.0-7 ii libfreetype6 2.4.9-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.3-1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.10-2 ii libice6 2:1.0.8-2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.1-2 ii libwnck22 2.30.7-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxfce4ui-1-0 4.8.1-1 ii libxfce4util4 4.8.2-1 ii libxfconf-0-2 4.8.1-1 ii multiarch-support 2.13-35 ii xfce4-settings 4.8.3-2 ii xfconf 4.8.1-1 Versions of packages xfce4-session recommends: ii consolekit 0.4.5-3.1 ii dbus-x11 1.6.0-1 ii upower 0.9.17-1 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.7~3 ii xfce4-panel 4.8.6-3 ii xfce4-utils 4.8.3-2 ii xfdesktop4 4.8.3-2 ii xfwm4 4.8.3-1 Versions of packages xfce4-session suggests: pn fortunes-mod <none> pn sudo <none> -- no debconf information
