Public bug reported: Hi,
While debugging a different issue (see https://askubuntu.com/questions/1280861/black-screen-after-18-04-20-04-1 -upgrade-on-virtualbox), I was trying to understand who runs 'xhost +si:localuser:<myuser>' and found the scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d. There I noticed there are 2 scripts who end up calling xhost like this, with slightly different tweaks: stefan@spuiu-vm:~$ grep -rn xhost /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ /etc/X11/Xsession.d/35x11-common_xhost-local:3:# If xhost (from x11-xserver-utils) is installed, use it to give access /etc/X11/Xsession.d/35x11-common_xhost-local:5:# Unlike other uses of xhost, this is safe since the kernel can check /etc/X11/Xsession.d/35x11-common_xhost-local:8:if type xhost >/dev/null 2>&1; then /etc/X11/Xsession.d/35x11-common_xhost-local:9: xhost +si:localuser:$(id -un) || : /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60x11-common_localhost:3:[ -x /usr/bin/xhost ] && [ -x /usr/bin/id ] && /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60x11-common_localhost:4: xhost +si:localuser:`id -un` > /dev/null It looks to me like one of them could be easily deleted. I'd vote for keeping the first one, 'type <command>' seems a tad more sensible than '-x /usr/bin/<command>', and also the first one makes sure there's no error exit status.
