[Bug 63981] Re: Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession
I'd like to add further confirmation of the issue. The problem seems to be that a "Replaces: xinit (<= 1.0.2-0ubuntu3)" was added to x11-common, in an attempt to take care of the issue, but this did not work, because the files had also changed name. Because of this name change, I think it is necessary for there to be a new version of xinit without the Xsession.d files released, and then a new version of x11-config which can then conflict with xinit less than the new version. I'll add xinit to the 'affected' list of this bug, since I think fixing it will require action in both packages. ** Also affects: xinit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession https://launchpad.net/bugs/63981 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Does this bug cause your ssh-add to stop working? I'm trying to debug that problem on my laptop, and the symptoms sounds similar (recent upgrade to edgy, duplicate files, and 2 ssh-aggents running). I'm wondering if this is the same bug, or I need to open a new one. -- Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession https://launchpad.net/bugs/63981 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 63981] Re: Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession
I can confirm now this is reproducible with a default upgrade. Steps to reproduce: 1. install Ubuntu 6.06 (dapper) from the live CD. 2. Update daper to latest dapper packages and reboot. 3. Upgrade to edgy using "update-manager -c -d". 4. Reboot. 5. Start a gnome session, open a terminal and type: pgrep -c ssh-agent Actual result: 2 Expected result: 1 The cause is the duplicate file in Xsession.d. -- Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession https://launchpad.net/bugs/63981 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 63981] Re: Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession
I have many X11 files. There is nothing in them, and certain programs I want to install require the X11 display...I can open up at least 1/6 dozen or more if I kept clicking. I ran some older commands earlier, and it seemed to help, until I went to change my theme in Thunderbird, and the bird is dead. I click on it, the little envelope bounces around, then **poof** its gone. I get a screen of errors that appear so fast I don't think I'd be able to copy the errors. I tried to un-install and reinstall to no avail; reinstall from synaptic to no avail, download from online with gwet- nada, nilch, zero, nothing. I thought I'd try kmail. It had other plansI will have working e-mail again, I just don't know which one...maybe one that WORKS. This is my 8th reinstallation. Knot # wouldn't install at all, so I went back to 2, and have run the updates. I can only reconfig my entire system and network so many timesif I have to I will, but I'm pretty sure I'll be grumpy about it. :p ** Attachment added: "BAH!

[Bug 63981] Re: Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession
I just tried the edgy Knot 3 live CD. In the livecd filesystem, the above duplication does not occur: only the conf files with "x11" in their name appear in the directory /etc/X11/Xsession.d. I guess that the duplicate "xorg" files were placed their by an earlier version of the package xinit (?) and were not removed by the edgy update. At any rate, I have the following: dapper - has only the "xorg" named files Knot 3 - has only the "x11" named files upgrade - leaves both "xorg' and "x11" -- Duplicate config files are sourced by Xsession https://launchpad.net/bugs/63981 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
