Bug#775905: DESKTOP_SESSION and XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP not set correctly with LightDM's "Default Xsession"

[Mike Gabriel]

Package: mate-session-manager
Severity: important

Together with Stefano from upstream I just discovered a new issue in  
mate-session-manager.

If I use LightDM as display manager and log into a Default Xsession  
(which is MATE on my system), then the env vars DESKTOP_SESSION and  
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP don't get set (correctly resp. at all).

Status quo:

   DESKTOP_SESSION=lightdm-xsession
   XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=

Should be:

   DESKTOP_SESSION=mate
   XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=MATE
