[Pkg-lxde-maintainers] Bug#585924: lxsession: no desktop icons

Package: lxsession
Version: 0.4.4-1
Severity: important

After the recent upgrade, I logged in to LXDE from kdm
and found that the desktop is completely black except
for the existence of lxpanel.

I don't know exactly where the problem is
but I read this article

  http://blog.lxde.org/?p=737

So I typed

  $ pcmanfm --desktop

and then the desktop icons appeared.  They seem to be working
except that when I click on the "trash" icon, it's opened in
pcmanfm and the desktop icons disappear and never come back
until I type "pcmanfm --desktop" again.

Hope this helps,

Ryo
P.S.  I have another Debian testing system with LXDE at home,
which has also lost desktop icons.
