Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ldm

in lines 327 to 331 in ldm.c the parent process (/etc/X11/Xsession) is
supposed to be killed, apparently that doesnt work properly and stale
bonobo or nautilus processes are left behind.

it might be caused by the fact that  there is no proper shell quoting
for the parent process ID

cmd[i++] = "$PPID";

should likely add some curly brackets as below:

cmd[i++] = "${PPID}";

** Affects: ldm (Ubuntu)
