mageia s/maintainer/mentor/ :) That fix can be thought out more. http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/xinitrc/current/SOURCES/Xsession?r1=1044232&r2=1049442 Instead of: > else > if [ use: > elif exactly like the previous rows. Further, this code is the fallback. In case nothing is installed, it'll now silently do nothing! Ideally reuse some of the logic that the gdm Xsession script used to have. It relied on zenity to inform the user. Much better for debugging! CC:

olav Package xsm was just imported into cauldron For Olaf, yep, usage of elif is better :-) I added this in 2.4.21-20. Fixed in 2.4.21-20. I close. Status:

RESOLVED |
Description of problem: There is a script called /etc/X11/Xsession which at line 185 calls: exec $CK_XINIT_SESSION /usr/bin/xsm but the binary /usr/bin/xsm is not contained in any available package in the distribution. Indeed it should be added. Other distro, (e.g fedora) put it in a package named "xorg-x11-xsm", anda previous version of the distro (e.g. mandriva) had it in a package named "xsm". The solution is to provide both the xsm package and also to fix the script /etc/X11/Xsession, checking the existance of /usr/bin/xsm before calling it, more or less like this: --- Xsession.orig 2015-05-21 15:36:51.562021073 +0200 +++ Xsession 2015-05-21 15:37:51.114113947 +0200 @@ -182,6 +182,8 @@ elif [ -x /usr/bin/twm ];then exec $CK_XINIT_SESSION /usr/bin/twm else - exec $CK_XINIT_SESSION /usr/bin/xsm + if [ -x /usr/bin/xsm ];then + exec $CK_XINIT_SESSION /usr/bin/xsm + fi fi fi Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
