This appears to be an error in Helix's gnome-session package. I'll file a bug if I ever get my gui back!

Re: Can't log in after apt-get upgrade
The dependency is present in gnome-session 1.2.4-helix2, but not helix1. Here's the before and after for the dist-upgrade I just did, which does seem to have fixed the problem.

Re: Can't log in after apt-get upgrade
If you upgraded as shown below, you still need to install the packages that have been kept back. However I experienced a similar problem and it turned out that the rep package didn't get installed.
