Confirmed here.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-cache policy gnome-session
gnome-session:
Installed: 2.23.6-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 2.23.6-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 2.23.6-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Steps to reproduce:
1. Delete ~/.config/autostart if it exists (or move it if you want to retain
its contents)
2. Open gnome-session-properties in terminal
3. Add an entry
What should happen:
1. gnome-session-properties should happily create the folder
~/.config/autostart and add a new .desktop file to it
What actually happens:
1. gnome-session-properties fails to create our new .desktop file and spits out
the following error:
** (gnome-session-properties:6053): WARNING **: Could not save
/home/chr1s/.config/autostart/firefox.desktop file
If you manually add ~/.config/autostart before you try to add the new
session entry, then it works. ~/.config/autostart isn't present on a
fresh user profile
** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
