Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.2-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
with #411639, X11 now supports loading user environment variables put in
$HOME/.xsessionrc. This is done with
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/40x11-common_xsessionrc. It's a file in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d, so it's sourced by gdm from /etc/gdm/Xsession (wich is
good), but $USERXSESSIONRC is not set in /etc/gdm/Xsession (while it's set in
/etc/X11/Xsession).
It'd be nice if this variable could be set in gdm too.
Attached patch fixes this.
Thanks, and regards.
