Description of problem: When running 'xauth list' as user, there is a 20 second delay while xauth tries to 'lock the authority file' which ultimately fails because of wrong name or permission problem Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xauth-1.0.10-1.mga6 lxdm-0.5.3-5.mga6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. xauth list xauth: timeout in locking authority file /var/run/lxdm/lxdm-:0.auth Note that strace shows a different file though: open("/var/run/lxdm/lxdm-:0.auth-c", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0 rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, NULL, {sa_handler=SIG_DFL, sa_mask=[], sa_flags=0}, 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0 nanosleep({tv_sec=2, tv_nsec=0}, 0x7ffea92231b0) = 0 Also note that this affects every ssh/su with X11 forwarding ...

Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there is no registered maintainer for this package.

Probably more an lxdm problem than an xauth problem.

Mageia 6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-09-30. It is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we weren't able to fix it before Mageia 6's end of life. If you are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you most [2].
