Package: xbase-clients Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Severity: normal If I'm running in an xsm session and the X server shuts down abnormally -- for instance, xsm or X crashes, or Ctrl-Alt-Backspace is pressed -- the .XSMlock file seems to hang around, resulting in xsm (silently!) locking me out of the session I was using until I manually remove it. A preferable solution would be a locking mechanism that is tied somehow to the xsm process that holds the lock -- if that's not possible (eg, you want to lock sessions over the network), then a prompt to break the lock or even just a message about what happened would be nice.
