There is no package named gnome-session-failback, so I assume you
meant gnome-session-fallback (note ‘l’ instead of ‘i’).

I have now bumped the Breaks version in the packaging Svn, this should
help with removing it.

However in stable it was already an empty transitional package (see [1]),
so I wonder how it could cause any segfaults for you.
