Package: gnome-session Version: 2.26.1-7 Severity: normal I had a working Gnome setup with sawfish. Sawfish was getting started automatically because I had set that in System / Preferences / Sessions (which seems to have disappeared now...): once in the distant past, removed metacity from there and started sawfish and asked gnome-session to remember what was currently running (including sawfish).
Now Gnome starts metacity. For what reason it decided to ignore my already set preference, I cannot fathom, but I consider it a bug. I suspect the upgrade from gnome-session 2.22 to 2.26. aptitude:[UPGRADE] gnome-session 2.22.3-3 -> 2.26.1-6 aptitude:[UPGRADE] gnome-session 2.26.1-6 -> 2.26.1-7 aptitude:[UPGRADE] gnome-session-bin 2.26.1-6 -> 2.26.1-7 aptitude.2.gz:[UPGRADE] gnome-session 2.22.3-2 -> 2.22.3-3 -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_LU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_LU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-session depends on: ii gnome-panel 2.26.2-1 launcher and docking facility for ii gnome-session-bin 2.26.1-7 The GNOME Session Manager - Minima ii gnome-settings-daemon 2.26.1-2 daemon handling the GNOME session ii metacity 1:2.26.0-2 lightweight GTK+ window manager ii sawfish 1:1.3.5.2-1 a window manager for X11 gnome-session recommends no packages.
