Package: gnome-session-bin Version: 42.0-1 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/gnome-session-custom-session Tags: patch X-Debbugs-Cc: akbarkhon.variskha...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer, Out of sheer curiosity, I ran 'g-s-c-s' to see what it does. To my surprise and wonder, it killed the active session. After examination, it was clear that 'g-s-c-s' cannot accomplish its task because 'g-s-selector' is not installed with the package. If it was shipped, the script would run just fine. 'g-s-c-s' does not protect against this scenario and goes on to execute the next line, which ends the session abruptly. It is unclear whether the exclusion of 'g-s-selector' from the package is intentional. If it is, then 'g-s-c-s' should be removed from 'd/g-s-bin.install', as it has no use in this case, since it depends on 'g-s-selector'. If it's unintentional and an oversight, then the "enable_session_selector" flag should be enabled for the build. In the meantime, a quick fix is to add an AND list operator between the two commands. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.18.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU thread; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages gnome-session-bin depends on: ii dbus-user-session [default-dbus-session-bus] 1.14.0-1 ii dbus-x11 [dbus-session-bus] 1.14.0-1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.40.0-3 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 42.0-1 ii libc6 2.33-7 ii libegl1 1.4.0-1 ii libepoxy0 1.5.10-1 ii libgl1 1.4.0-1 ii libgles2 1.4.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.72.2-2 ii libgnome-desktop-3-19 42.2-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.34-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.10-1 ii libjson-glib-1.0-0 1.6.6-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.3-1 ii libsystemd0 251.2-6 ii libx11-6 2:1.7.5-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.5-1 ii upower 0.99.19-1 ii xwayland 2:22.1.2-1 Versions of packages gnome-session-bin recommends: ii libpam-systemd [logind] 251.2-6 gnome-session-bin suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
