Control: severity -1 serious

Hi,

After about 2 years, I am bumping the severity of this bug to RC.
Because lxsession is a "key package", it won't be automatically
removed from Testing. From what I can tell, lxsession is the only
major package still using libunique.

Personally, I was surprised that LXDE was kept in Debian; I thought it
was going to be replaced by LXQt. Are you planning to keep LXDE in
Bullseye?

See the master bug https://bugs.debian.org/885813 for documentation
about migrating away from libunique. I believe it requires moving to
GTK3 which sounds like it might be a very large project for a desktop
environment.

Thanks,
Jeremy Bicha
