Bug#843338: gnome-shell: Launching the autostart files are delayed for about one minute when booting with kernel 4.8.0

[Sergio Costas]

Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.22.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After updating my Debian SID system to kernel 4.8.0, mysteriously gnome shell
delayed for a little more than one minute the launch of the autostart programs
and some extensions. Sometimes the right menu doesn't work until that minute
passes and everything gets loaded.

Applications work fine, except that Plank, Solaar (they are two programs that I
have to be launched on desktop startup) and Nautilus with the desktop icons
weren't launched until about one minute. Returning to kernel 4.7.0 made
everything boot fine again, launching everything instantaneously. Booting again
with 4.8.0 triggers again that big delay.

Checked the .config/autostart folder and found two .desktop files that pointed
to non-existent binaries, but removing them didn't fixed the problem.

The bug happens only after booting the computer. Closing the session and
opening again doesn't trigger it. Also tried to disable the autologin, but the
bug also happens in this case.
